Narrative:
I was taxing onto runway 35 at 52F. After circling on the run-up pad to check the pattern I proceeded to taxi on to runway for departure. (There are trees that sometimes prevent visual of traffic on final.) this was a case of me being on the runway, an airplane landing over my head. (They should have gone around.) I continued takeoff before aforementioned aircraft was clear of active runway. (I should have discontinued takeoff roll.) the T34 was turning off runway as I flew over at about 100 ft departing. After reviewing this situation, I realize that I should have stopped my takeoff. Not even seeing the T34 before taxiing onto runway because of tree position really is a scary feeling. Perhaps the fact it was late afternoon was affecting my judgement. I felt we were both wrong and learned a great deal from this. I'm glad that no one was hurt.

Title: SMA STARTS TKOF ROLL AS T34 LANDS OVER THE TOP. HE CONTINUES HIS TKOF.
Narrative: I WAS TAXING ONTO RWY 35 AT 52F. AFTER CIRCLING ON THE RUN-UP PAD TO CHK THE PATTERN I PROCEEDED TO TAXI ON TO RWY FOR DEP. (THERE ARE TREES THAT SOMETIMES PREVENT VISUAL OF TFC ON FINAL.) THIS WAS A CASE OF ME BEING ON THE RWY, AN AIRPLANE LNDG OVER MY HEAD. (THEY SHOULD HAVE GONE AROUND.) I CONTINUED TKOF BEFORE AFOREMENTIONED ACFT WAS CLR OF ACTIVE RWY. (I SHOULD HAVE DISCONTINUED TKOF ROLL.) THE T34 WAS TURNING OFF RWY AS I FLEW OVER AT ABOUT 100 FT DEPARTING. AFTER REVIEWING THIS SIT, I REALIZE THAT I SHOULD HAVE STOPPED MY TKOF. NOT EVEN SEEING THE T34 BEFORE TAXIING ONTO RWY BECAUSE OF TREE POS REALLY IS A SCARY FEELING. PERHAPS THE FACT IT WAS LATE AFTERNOON WAS AFFECTING MY JUDGEMENT. I FELT WE WERE BOTH WRONG AND LEARNED A GREAT DEAL FROM THIS. I'M GLAD THAT NO ONE WAS HURT.
