Metro III flying question

I was just after information on Power and attitude settings in a Metro III aircraft in the climb after takeoff and for an ILS. Thanks in advance for any info.
Cheers

Climb out at 620 C EGT and 100% RPM. Adjust attitude to give 150kts if heavy, 160 if not so heavy. Metro 23 will climb out well at 200kts intially.
25-30% tq for an ILS will get you in the ballpark with small adjustments from there to finetune for correct approach speed.

Defs got it, but for the ILS depends on what your SOPs are in terms of flap etc. Some companies land flap half off the ILS so 20-25% on average loads should keep you at 130. Some do full flap off it, for that try 25-30. As for Attitude for climb out, depends again on what you wanna climb out at, but 10-12 nose up will pretty much spit out 160kts at average weights. We used to just pull her up to 10 degrees and adjust for 160. Been a while though
