    Really enjoying DC-8 content on YT. Will be flying this on my own channel soon! When flying the B377 and Connie, coming 'off the step' into a cruise profile is a standard proceedure as far as I can remember. They would always climb an extra 1000ft or so and then descent to gain speed and get up to their cruise profile quicker. Rather than labour through that drag from the angle of attack. With props at FL300 you kinda need to do that as you'll be stuck with a high angle of attack way too long. I guess a propliner isn't the only aircraft that has this issue!! :P Keep the DC-8 stuff coming! Theres definitely not enough ppl interested in vintage aviation these days!
