Accelerate in a VERY gentle climb to at least Vyse+10kts. Note I am NOT advocating flying level at 2'!!!
and
Climb out at Vyse+10-20kts or cruise climb. Speed is ESSENTIAL not altitude. DO NOT reduce power to some BS 25/25 setting...leave everything all the way forward.
At the higher speed you'll need less rudder to control yaw and you have 'ample' time to carry out the memory items and assess whether the aeroplane will actually climb away and allow a circuit and landing while you gently raise the nose and climb with the speed VERY gently reducing to Vyse
i must respectfully disagree. IMHO you should fly at Vy (Vx for obstacle clearance if necessary). that provides the highest altitude should you suffer an engine failure. you must remember that drag is proportional to the square of the airspeed so the higher the speed, the quicker you will slow down anyway. much better to be at 400' at 85kts then 250' at 100kts in something like a duchess when the engine stops.
RAAF procedures are as i describe and it certainly is the beechcraft recommendation.
