Climb
Reduce power and maintain
240 knots
indicated. Climb at approximately
+2,500
feet per minute by adjusting
power and pitch.
You can engage the autopilot to maintain the climb as you pass through 3,000ft AGL. Confirm that the autopilot
mode selector is set to
MAN (manual) and then engage autopilot 1. The autopilot will maintain the aircraft’s
current pitch and hold wings level.
We can now engage the autothrottle to maintain our climb speed. Switch ON the autothrottle power, rotate the
speed selector to 240 knots and then engage IAS mode.
Engage the ALT (altitude hold) switch. The initial datum altitude (target altitude) used by the autopilot is that which
exists at the time of engagement (our current altitude). As we want to climb to our cruise altitude, rotate and hold
the datum adjust knob in the
INC position (right-click) until the tooltip displays a target altitude of 31,000ft .
