I did a JFK to BOS flight; consequently, only needed very little fuel.  So, I thought I'd try a climb 2.   I set the usual EPR/LNAV/VNAV.  It only climbed at 1500 FPM and around 160 knots.  Is that right?  I set ZFW to 120.  I set cost to somewhere around 99.

Also, the cruise speed was very low of 180 knots.  Only when I increased speed on the a/p did my speed increase.  I did click CRZ button.

Practice...practice...Practice...practice...
