Hill climb: 80% Load or "slow speed bleed"
Here's something I find contradictory and hard to fathom... Climbing a hill, I find the most fuel efficient method is a gradual speed bleed. Yet we are also told that the most efficient way to accelerate is at ~80% load. These two seem contradictory- my own findings are that if I accelerate up a hill it is less fuel efficient. Can anyone explain?
