Need help with Take-off

Featured Replies

Hi all,I have some problems during take-off (Flaps 5 take-off). The normal procedure is to let the engines come up to 40% and after that engage the TO/GA button. You hear the pilot calling '80kts' 'V1' 'VRotate' and 'V2'.After hearing Vrotate you pull the stick and the aircrafts nose is in the air. When there is positive rate of climb gear up and set speed on V2+20kts. And there is my problem. When I'm just airborne my speed goes far above the V2+20. To get it back to this V2+20 I need to reduce the N1 to 70%. And I think that's not the way it has to be. To hold this V2+20 just after take-off I have to pull very hard, and climbing with a vertical speed around 4000ft.Is this normal?? Or what's the normal procedure?Regards,STeven

dependant on many factors this can be correct.i've had attitudes of 18

Steven,Also remember to derate N1 for TO and CLB as the 737 is quite overpowered. I usually derate to TO-1 and CLB-2 for a moderate load.Hope it helps,
