5.6. Calculating climb performance
The aircraft is nearly always operated under different conditions than ISA standard
atmosphere. Aircraft climb performance under different conditions can be estimated
according to the following tables. The basis for these values is an aircraft in good
conditions. Best climb is achieved with 0° flaps. Data are provided for 0° and 15°
flaps (climb and take-off condition).
Warning:
Knowledge of the correct density altitude is mandatory to obtain reliable
values for the aircraft performance.
