Hi stephen, what was the reason for the stall after take off ?

Hi Ryan, to be perfectly honest I didn't get an actual stall warning during takeoff (flying the PMDG 747-8F with ActiveSky wx) although it was VERY bumpy! Thunderstorms were in the area and I had increased my TO thrust rating to compensate. Also I had to change my departure runway at the last minute to avoid a huge buildup - I wish I'd have taken a picture of my wx radar!

No problem, that will be the reason. Active sky sometimes throws out false stalls, just keep an eye out on your pireps for me when in bad weather. Cheers, Ryan

Will do, cheers Ryan
