Just looking in the OI's and the procedure is as follows:
- Don't touchdown
- Clean up aircraft
- Throttles Max
- 10 to 20 degree nose high
- 60 degree bank
Now, I don't pretend to know about the A-10 but in the civil world it generally works something like this:
- Apply full power
- Retract drag devices/landing flaps (one stage)
- Establish positive rate of climb
- Clean up aircraft (takeoff flaps/gear up)
- No turns under 300ft
- 30 degree or less bank angle during climb
The reason for not removing both stages of flap and limiting the bank angle is that they could both cause an unrecoverable loss of lift at low speed and altitude.
