Using the cruise-to-climb transition, what is the nose attitude for a normal climb greater than 1000 feet?

In a normal climb greater than 1000 feet, the appropriate nose attitude is typically 12-15° nose high. This specific angle allows for an effective climb performance, optimizing the aircraft’s lift while maintaining sufficient airflow over the wings.

When climbing at this attitude, the aircraft achieves a balance between gaining altitude and ensuring that the climb rate is efficient enough to avoid excess drag, which could compromise performance. This nose attitude supports maintaining control of the aircraft while ensuring that speed is managed properly.

Each of the other options represents a different range of nose attitudes, which may not provide the optimal performance characteristics required for climbing significantly above 1000 feet. Such adjustments could lead to inefficient climbs or difficulty in maintaining the desired performance criteria for this phase of flight.
