Climbs of 1000 feet or less will be done at max allowable power

and cruise airspeed (150 or 170 KIAS). Climbs of 1000 feet or

more will be done at 120 KIAS, accompanied by clearing turns.

Trim - RIGHT and UP for the climb, power addition and deceleration.

Approaching 120 KIAS, lower the nose to the appropriate attitude.
