The Last Minutes of AirAsia Flight 8501

More lies from the MSM.

It is not normal to climb like that, it’s very rare for commercial planes, which normally climb just 1,000 to 2,000 feet per minute,” he said. “It can only be done by a fighter jet.” He did not, however, explain what caused the plane to climb so rapidly.

6,000 ft per minute climb rate ….Hmmmmm…..

From the A320 pilots operation manual:

Climb Rate:
• Climb Rate: Set to 1,800 ft./min. (Higher rates of climb, up to 2,500 ft./min. are permitted.)
• Note: Climb rate is normally dictated by airspeed – that is, you fly a certain airspeed that yields a certain climb
rate. This POH specifies a climb rate instead to give you, the pilot in command, a guide to climb performance of this
aircraft.
Climb Airspeed:
• Departure Altitude to 10,000 ft. – no greater than 250 KIAS
• Above 10,000 ft. – Fly Mach Number = .62 to .70
• Vne/Mmo – Never Exceed/Maximum Mach Number = .74
