Regional Jet 200 ER/LR (CRJ200)
Flight Crew Air Transport Pilot (ATP)
Inflight Event / Encounter Wake Vortex Encounter
Flight Crew Took Evasive Action
Environment - Non Weather Related; Procedure
Departing out of CLT were cleared for takeoff behind an A320. I anticipated that ATC would keep us adequately separated from any potential wake turbulence. As we began our climb and acceleration through 1;000 feet AGL I could see the probability of flying through that aircraft's wake. I called for continuous ignition then just before we were about to retract the flaps we got into it pretty hard. Counter control required full aileron deflection and some additional rudder. The stick shaker activated as well. The stick shaker activation was due to the turbulent air deflecting the AOA vanes and not due to an excessive angle of attack. Airspeed throughout the maneuver was approximately 190KIAS. To avoid this in the future I think Charlotte tower should give the following aircraft an upwind vector; or turn the leading aircraft downwind and earlier; or hold the following aircraft until separation is sufficient. Based on the CRJ's long takeoff roll it is inevitable that following a larger aircraft will cause the climbing flight path to intersect with the flight path of the leading aircraft. The most likely cause was ATC clearing us for takeoff before there was adequate separation.
CRJ-200 First Officer reported encountering wake turbulence on departure from CLT in trail of an A320 that resulted in uncommanded roll and stick shaker. Reporter suggested increased separation on takeoff.
