Refer to figure.
Given the following data, determine the maximum rate of climb of the aircraft.

Outside air temperature: 0°C
Pressure altitude: 6500 ft

  • A

    480 ft / min

  • B

    400 ft / min

  • C

    520 ft / min

  • D

    800 ft / min

Refer to figure.
In order to find the maximum rate of climb from the graph:

  1. Locate the outside air temperature of 0°C on the left lower side of the graph.
  2. Draw a line upwards from the point of outside air temperature of 0°C until the the Pressure Altitude lines of 6500 ft (slightly higher than the Pressure Altitude line of 6000 ft).
  3. From that point draw a line towards the right until it intersects the rate of climb graph.
  4. From that intersection draw a line downwards and read a rate of climb of 480 ft/min.
