does Climb Profile 250/320/85 mean the rate you climb at?
-csg
Those are speeds not rate of climb. Basically it means go 250 to 10000, 320 to FL280 and then Mach .85 to cruise

Basically what rate to climb at.
I mean… should be pretty self explanatory. Flight level is altitude, block fuel is total fuel, etc.

I mean, a lot of these are self-explanatory things…
Elevation: how high the airports are MSL.
Planned runway: runway to use for takeoff and landing.
Current weather: METAR for the airport and the time of publication.
SID/STAR: self-explanatory.
Aircraft: self-explanatory.
Flight level: how high you’ll ultimately end up at.
Block fuel: fuel.
Plan distance: self-explanatory.
Flight time: self-explanatory.
V-Speeds: V1, V2, and VR, which aren’t available.
Climb profile: refer to Drummer’s explanation.
Descent profile: Drummer’s explanation, but for going down.
Passenger count: self-explanatory.

Climb at your discretion…

Ohhhhhh. That makes more sense. Thank you! :)
If you follow all instructions stated, climbing to FL400 shouldn’t be a problem.
To add on, there’s many Infinite Flight tutorial videos found on YouTube that help cover this stuff if you need further assistance.

Idrk why you don’t know what climb rate to use when you kinda answered your own question in this message:

You can climb at your discretion…
However, if you need figures, here’s what i follow most of the time depending upon the type & weight of the aircraft!
| Altitude | Vertical Speed | IAS |
|---|---|---|
| Upto 10,000ft | 2500 VS | 240 - 250 IAS |
| 10,000ft - FL280 | 2200 VS | 290 - 310 IAS |
| FL280 - FL430 | 2000 - 1800 VS | M 0.78 - M 0.85 |
Generally less speed for small aircrafts such as A320/B737 & more speed for large aircrafts such as B777/B787.
