I am looking for feedback on this take off that I did yesterday. I was 2 seconds from balking the take off and in reality, when I touched back down I should have called it then. You can see the Stall Light come on right at the time I brought the yoke back. Rotated at just above 60 MPH.



60J does not have weather reporting and the closest airport that does was 18 miles to the SW with the weather being: 14010G16 29/20 3005 - Windsock at 60J was Calm, but the windsock is on a building and sits below the tree top level. 60J is at sea level and I calculated the density altitude at 1486'.


The plane was loaded at 94% Gross and within it's limitation at an Arm of 87.63, so close to the limits, but not over. It was the wife and I in the plane with a cooler of water and some beach chairs, towels, etc...


Thoughts... Lay it on me. I'm posting this to learn as I don't want to repeat it
