Narrative:
As PIC of C152 with student pilot, I was mistaken in the intentions of the landing husky while we were holding short. After the husky landed, I believed that I saw the husky continue with a touch-and-go and depart the runway. At that time, the husky was 6000 ft down the asphalt runway. The heat rising from the runway, combined with a dip in the runway, gave the illusion of sky between the husky and runway. The student then began to taxi onto the runway and began takeoff roll. On realizing that the husky was in actuality taxiing to the opposite end of the 8500 ft runway, we offset from the runway and continued departure, as the husky taxied clear.

Narrative: AS PIC OF C152 WITH STUDENT PLT, I WAS MISTAKEN IN THE INTENTIONS OF THE LNDG HUSKY WHILE WE WERE HOLDING SHORT. AFTER THE HUSKY LANDED, I BELIEVED THAT I SAW THE HUSKY CONTINUE WITH A TOUCH-AND-GO AND DEPART THE RWY. AT THAT TIME, THE HUSKY WAS 6000 FT DOWN THE ASPHALT RWY. THE HEAT RISING FROM THE RWY, COMBINED WITH A DIP IN THE RWY, GAVE THE ILLUSION OF SKY BTWN THE HUSKY AND RWY. THE STUDENT THEN BEGAN TO TAXI ONTO THE RWY AND BEGAN TKOF ROLL. ON REALIZING THAT THE HUSKY WAS IN ACTUALITY TAXIING TO THE OPPOSITE END OF THE 8500 FT RWY, WE OFFSET FROM THE RWY AND CONTINUED DEP, AS THE HUSKY TAXIED CLR.
