1. First things first. All the airplanes have a speed for best climb rate (Vy), and this includes transport category aircraft. But the speed Vy, does not matter to us because our climb performance calculations are a little bit more complex when compared to a small GA aircraft. Think of this.
Method 3: Minimum climb fuel. One could suspect that the maximum rate climb at Vy (minimum time) will also yield the minimum fuel used for climb. Indeed the speed for minimum climb fuel is very close to Vy, but somewhat lower [1]. The reason for this is the dependence of fuel flow rate on airspeed. Imagine, you are climbing at Vy, and note the
Apr 9, 2010. #6. 4L60-E simply means: 4 - 4 forward speeds. L - Longitudinally mounted (front to back) 60 - Torque handling capability. E - Electronically controlled. So, all mechanical components will be capable of handling the torque, but whether they fit the different engine is another thing. Electronic valve body etc might operate
Speed increase needed to lift (at constant optimal AOA) a given weight increase is the SQUARE ROOT of the weight increase. Drag produced by this speed increase is speed SQUARED. This produces a linear relationship between gliding distance gained from increased weight compared with gliding distance lost from increased INDUCED drag.
Vx is listed as 62 KIAS. The difference between KCAS of 62 and 70 is 8 knots. 62 KIAS is 20% of the way between 60 and 70 KIAS. 20% of 8 is 1.6. 62 + 1.6 = 63.6 KCAS. For barrier speed, I used the Flaps 10 degree lines. Barrier speed is listed as 56 KIAS. The difference between 57 and 63 KCAS is 6 knots. 56 is 60% of the way between 50 and 60 KIAS.
Vy, best rate of climb, accelerate to Vy and raise TO flaps Vcc, cruise climb, not in POH but use difference between Vx and Vy. E.g., my E has Vx (clean) is 82 kias, Vy (clean) is 91 kias, so Vcc is 100 kias. You might have to use a higher Vcc for a long climb on a hot day but Bob suggests his rule of thumb is most efficient.
Whereas Vy is the greatest difference between thrust horsepower required and thrust horsepower available where thrust horsepower = Thrust* Velocity (TAS) It is not a function of TAS. The question is why in that particular AFM the Vx at 10,000' is quoted as higher than the Vy at 10,000'.

The Borg-Warner diff was first fitted to later model VK’s, it had a 2spider center with 25 spline axles. On the VL’s they fitted 4 spider LSD centers and 28 spline
