Narrative:

On 12/wed/92, I was PIC on an aircraft that was taking off, which my copilot was at the controls. During the takeoff roll he disengaged the steering button which made the aircraft swerve towards the side of the runway. We never aborted the takeoff. I got the aircraft back on centerline and continued the takeoff.
