- and you are absolutely certain that '85%'ish' will give you the required rate of climb at +25deg and MLW and 2000' ASL? If you are using manual throttle, best to push them forwards and then have PNF set them to the bugs, then it will.

Part of the 'problems' in turbulent conditions arise from the use of the alpha vane to 'measure' 1.3Vs and that can bounce around a bit.
