Narrative:
Elected to reject takeoff after airborne due to lack of acceleration and climb performance. I was not in position to trouble shoot problem and took conservative action to avoid loss of control. I could have selected the longer runway for departure which would have improved margin of error for existing conditions at [the] airport.
