The departure was a little hectic.
Because of delay before departure, I had to refile the flight plan of the Mustang and the TBM.
Then weather came in and the runway was changed.
Between clearance and startup we had a 45 mn wait, then we get a storming shower while taxing, first time I wish the Mustang has wipers...
In any case we took, behind a 777 and got on our way with a climb speed requested to be 210 kts,...yes I can but it will be a slow climb
Soon we were off the departure and given radar vectors, and with ISA at plus 18/19 during the climb ( it was only +17 in cruise at 330) we were on our merry way.
