B733 acceleration after takeoff
 

In your company are you required to complete the AFTER TAKEOFF CHECKLIST to accelerate from 210 to 250 kts?
Thank you

Some rely on the callouts (Flaps up, no light) to accelerate, some require to complete the After TO cklist to be REALLY SURE not to overstress the fleps and the gear.

And some (like the one I fly) have no specific calls relating to the flaps reaching their up pos'n, nor do the checks before accelleration.

Intersting,X, but just to confirm we are talking about -300: the 400 and I guess the NG have higher flaps limit speeds.

That's right, -300. PF is expected to make sure himself that he won't bust any limit speeds.

Sorry, should be 'the company I fly for,' not on the -300 myself anymore. :\\

We do the after t/o checklist after the accelleration.
Flaps up is confirmed by both pilots before acc.

shirra,

i guess it's just different company's approach to doing things. a lot of things in aviation has got no right or wrong. if it make sense then it's probably good :)

just my 2 cents. cheers...

I agree, and both methods make sense.
I was wondering if, statistically, the majority of the companies are required to do the After TO CKlist before acceleration, so it would be nice if other pilots replied also to this question.

Thanks a lot for your input.
