opstijgtempo
Opstijgtempo, also known as climb rate or rate of climb, refers to the vertical speed at which an aircraft ascends. It is a critical performance characteristic that affects the aircraft's ability to gain altitude quickly and efficiently. The climb rate is influenced by several factors, including the aircraft's engine power, wing design, air density, and weight. A higher climb rate is desirable for various operational scenarios, such as taking off from shorter runways, avoiding adverse weather conditions, and gaining altitude quickly to escape threats.
The climb rate is typically measured in feet per minute (ft/min) or meters per second (m/s). For
In aviation, the climb rate is an essential parameter for flight planning and performance calculations. Pilots
