Climb
Normal climbs are performed flaps UP (0%) and full power at speeds 5
to 10 knots higher than best rate-of-climb speeds. These higher
speeds give the best combination of performance, visibility and engine
cooling.
For maximum rate of climb, use the best rate-of-climb speeds shown
in the Enroute Rate of Climb Chart in Section 5. If an obstruction
dictates the use of a steep climb angle, the best angle-of-climb speed
should be used. Climbs at speeds lower than the best rate-of-climb
speed should be of short duration to avoid engine-cooling problems.
1. Climb Power............................................................................. SET
2. Flaps ................................................................................ Verify UP
3. Mixture .............................................. LEAN as required for altitude
4. Engine Parameters ............................................................ CHECK
5. Fuel Pump ......................................................................... BOOST
• Note •
The fuel pump is used for vapor suppression during climb. It is
also recommended that the fuel pump be left on after leveling
off for 30 minutes following a climb and anytime fuel flow or
EGT anomalies occur.
