I also agree with what was said above.....no flaps = better climb gradient performance.......

but still not sure why the procedure on the twin otter is to select flaps to 10 degrees following an engine failure.

On T/O, if more than 10 degrees of flaps had been selected it would make sense to initially raise them to 10 degrees following a failure.

But if F10 had already been selected for the T/O, why not raise the flaps in increments all the way up?

Any twotter experts out there?
