The 10 is a wonderful noisy beast. I seem to remember our noise abatement procedure was full chat for 90 seconds, throttle back to lower power and lower nose (causing great alarm) for 90 seconds(?) further, then normal climb power- then presumably they levelled off.

I think we've spoilt you lot with gentle handling, so the odd time when things get a little more lively you all think you're doomed! What it is is pilots handling the aeroplane in a perfectly acceptable way- they have no idea you are sitting there, knuckles white, feeling you are about to levitate.
