Takeoff Climb Gradient
• Note •
• Climb Gradients shown are the gain in altitude for the horizontal distance traversed
expressed as Feet per Nautical Mile.
• Cruise climbs or short duration climbs are permissible at best power as long as
altitudes and temperatures remain within those specified in the table.
• For operation in air colder than this table provides, use coldest data shown.
• For operation in air warmer than this table provides, use extreme caution.
Conditions: Example:
• Power .............................. Full Throttle Outside Air Temp.......................20° C
• Mixture ................................. Full Rich Weight .................................. 3000 LB
• Flaps ........................................... 50% Pressure Altitude .................. 1750 FT
• Airspeed............... Best Rate of Climb
Climb Airspeed .....................85 Knots
Gradient............................491 FT/NM
