Flight in Icing Conditions - Maximum Rate of Climb
The use of Flaps 30° is prohibited in or into known icing conditions. After icing encounters, and
with visible ice accretion on the airframe, a climb is performed with the flaps retracted and a
climb speed based on the schedule as given in

The total climb performance is calculated by first computing the Rate of Climb in non-icing
conditions from
(metric units) and then correcting
the Rate of Climb in or into known icing conditions by using the corrections in
(with operational pneumatic de-ice boots) or
(with the pneumatic de-ice boots
inoperative).
