Thanks for the reply. My query is actually this: do we need to maintain V2 plus 10 until reaching the altitude published: in this case 4000', before commencing the acceleration, even if our normal acceleration is a climbing one? That is; instead of doing V2 + 10 to 3000', we go to 4000' and then accelerate??
The SID reads "Climb to 4000', prior to LEVEL acceleration." This might imply that aircraft which do not normally accellerate in level flight need not comply with this note!???
