  Definite room for improvement...

  *The King Air was never made to land on those kind of bush strips, and there was also a line of trees blocking the threshold for Rwy 28

  **Power on final to keep from stalling and then reverse thrust

  ***Caused by a stutter and a gust of wind with in 10 seconds of take off

  ****I had a 10 knot crosswind during takeoff

  *****Same issue as before
