Hi again!

Hey con you please tell me the VS for example in the 737 from ground to cruise altitude. thanks

One more thing.. with FSUIPC In the Joystic tab ; i have: axis not processed!  should i set all the buttons? does it really make a difference?

Bye

Juan, take a look at the users manual that should have been downloaded with FSUIPC.  It exlains in detail about the joystick settings and axis.

I don't know about the textbook VS limits on weight considerations, but a good thing to consider is your total weight on takeoff.

What I do (meaning what a non-737 pilot does):
flaps down 10 degrees, Vr at about 160 at about 10 degrees pitch, retract, then increase climb to an initial of 4000fpm.. at about 1000AGL, I bring it back down to around 3000-3200fpm.. a steady climb should be reached by going 3000fpm at 240kts.  Passing 10000 I bring it down to 2500fpm.. passing FL200, down to 2200fpm.  Any FL higher than 300, bring it down to about 1200-1500.  Remember during the climb to retract flaps (I don't have the speeds on-hand).  Maintain less than 250kts below 10000ft, then below 280kts to FL180, and then anything goes above that.

Again, these are the climbing procedures of just the teenage enthusiast, but they are almost accurate, and deserve some applause since it gets you to a cruising of FL350 approx. 10-15mins after departure at a solid speed..  ;)

If someone knows the actual climbing procedures for the real-life 734, please don't hesitate to contribute..

P.S. fuel is a big factor.. the less fuel you have on takeoff, Vr decreases and VS increases..  So does your acceleration, so this is where the performance charts for the B734 come in handy, of which I don't have access to..
