What indicated airspeed do you normally rotate at? (no real answer, just
curious) Take off with the twin requires us to hold it onto the runway
until 80mph, we definately do not want to rotate prematurely in case of an
engine failure.


We usually start to rotate (and that's not really what we're doing -- more
like applying mild back pressure) around 70 mph -- but that's not a hard and
fast figure. It all depends on "feel", in my experience -- which, in turn,
is based on weight, wind, temperature, etc.
