DURING A TAKEOFF AFTER A TOUCH AND GO LANDING THE NOSE GEAR RETRACTED AT ABOUT THE TIME OF ROTATION. POWER WAS REDUCED TO IDLE AND THE ACFT SLID TO A STOP. THIS ACFT IS EQUIPPED WITH SQUAT SWITCHES WHICH PREVENT GEAR RETRACTION WHEN THE WEIGHT OF THE ACFT COMPRESSES THE STRUTS. TESTING DO NOT REVEAL ANY MALFUNCTION OF THE RETRACTION SYSTEM.
