Airbus A318 Use of the V/S to Climb

Hi guys,

My question is about climb performance on the Airbus A318 especially with PW6122A engines.

Certain times with heavy weight and crossing high altitutes have a negative rate of climb using managed climb. The rate of climb is very inconstant (200,300 ft/min)

I would like to know is is a good technique use a select V/S with select high speed to keep the aircraft wit constant rate of climb (example: M 0.80 with select V/S +- 500 or 600 ft/mn). Sure that we have to use this in high altitutes, when the climb performance is not to good.

This is a good technique? It's recommended? Not recommended?
Anybody knows if have something about it on FCTM?
