2. Ex 7 Climbing Aim To enter and maintain a steady full power climb then to return to level flight at a predetermined altitude, also to enter and maintain a steady cruise climb

3. The Forces More power is required in a climb to balance the increase in drag from weight More power is required in a climb to balance the increase in drag from weight Drag also varies with airspeed so- Drag also varies with airspeed so- CLIMB PERFORMNCE VARIES WITH AIRSPEED CLIMB ENTRY CLIMB PERFORMNCE VARIES WITH AIRSPEED CLIMB ENTRY

4. Climb Attitudes rates of climb 1 min at 45mph =500ft 1 min at 50 mph =700ft per min Figures illustration only Cruise Climb 300rpm above cruise to give climb rate of 300ft per min [not shown on diagram] See next slide
