In the taxi-to-takeoff sequence, which step occurs last?

The step order in moving from taxi to flight starts with getting the aircraft ready and into position on the ground, then transitions to lift-off and flight. Pre-takeoff checks are completed to verify configuration and readiness before you move onto the runway. Aligning with the runway is done while still on the ground to ensure you’re lined up properly for takeoff. Applying takeoff power is the thrust setting needed to accelerate and rotate for liftoff. Climb is the step that occurs after you’ve lifted off and established a positive rate of climb, as you transition from ground to supported flight and continue to gain altitude. Since you only begin climbing once you’re airborne, climb is the last step in the taxi-to-takeoff sequence.
