TAKEOFF (Continued)
CROSSWIND TAKEOFF
Takeoffs into strong crosswinds normally are performed with FLAPS
TO/APR. With the ailerons partially deflected into the wind, the airplane
is accelerated to a speed higher than normal, and then rotated to
prevent settling back to the runway. When clear of the ground, make a
coordinated turn into the wind to correct for drift. The use of FLAPS UP
will improve directional control, but will also increase the takeoff
distance.
ENROUTE CLIMB
Normally, maximum climb power is maintained during the climb to
cruise altitude. Adjust the POWER lever as required to prevent
exceeding maximum climb torque, maximum climb ITT of 825°C, or
maximum climb N
g
of 103.7%, whichever occurs first.
At lower altitudes and cool outside air temperatures (below
approximately 6000 feet), the engine will reach the torque limit before
reaching the ITT or N
g
limit. As the climb progresses and the torque is
maintained by POWER lever advancement, the ITT and N
g
will
increase until an altitude is reached where ITT or N
g
will dictate
POWER lever positioning. When operating near the ITT limit, advance
POWER lever slowly to allow the current ITT to be indicated. The rate
of power (and temperature) increase of the engine is greater than the
response rate of the ITT indicating system; therefore, a rapid POWER
lever advance could allow an over-temperature condition to exist
momentarily in the engine before the over-temperature would be
indicated.
For maximum performance climb, the best rate-of-climb airspeed
should be used with 1900 RPM and maximum climb power. This speed
is 108 KIAS from sea level to 3000 feet, decreasing to 92 KIAS at
20,000 feet.
