Refer to figure or CAP758 figure 2.19.
Which statement below is correct?

  • A

    The rate of climb at 6000 ft with 2050 lb is 800 fpm.

  • B

    The rate of climb at 7500 ft with 1800 lb is 600 fpm.

  • C

    The rate of climb is constant up to 4200 ft.

  • D

    The rate of climb is the same for all masses up to 2000 ft.

Refer to figure.

1. The rate of climb at 6000 ft with 2050 lb is 800 fpm: INCORRECT.

  • Enter with the Pressure altitude 6000 ft from the left and move horizontally to the right to intersect the Gross mass 2050 lb.
  • Continue vertically down and read the Rate of Climb: 580 ft/min.

2. The rate of climb at 7500 ft with 1800 lb is 600 fpm: INCORRECT.

  • Enter with the Pressure altitude 7500 ft from the left and move horizontally to the right to intersect the Gross mass 1800 lb.
  • Continue vertically down and read the Rate of Climb: 780 ft/min.

3. The rate of climb is constant up to 4200 ft: CORRECT.

  • The rate of climb is a vertical line, thus constant, for each mass up to 4200 ft.

4. The rate of climb is the same for all masses up to 2000 ft: INCORRECT.

  • The rate of climb is a vertical line, thus constant, for each mass to 4200 ft and not the same for all masses.
