# Notes
- engine RPM should not be excessively high during engine start, this is bad practice and bad for the engine, you do not immediately lean the mixture after engine start, RPM should not stay above 1000 RPM after startup, if you accidentally start engine at high RPM you should reduce it immediately
- started taxiing almost 40 minutes past the hour due to coming in without dispatch sheet completed
# Soft Field Takeoff
- need to pull back more on elevator to make sure that nose wheel is off ground
- elevator should be full aft when taxiing onto runway
- missed radio call to fly runway heading
- missed radio call to turn crosswind
- did not respond to landing clearance
# Soft Field Landing
- undershot final
# Normal Landing
- about 2 degrees misaligned
- made touchdown point
# Short Field Landing
- slightly short of landing point
- ==**no braking**==
- ==**did not retract flaps**==
