## Narrative

As the FAA filed it, in capitals; the FAA replaces private details with ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^.

NARRATIVE: ALTHOUGH ACA 825 ACCEPTED THE CROSSING RESTRICTION GIVEN TO THEM BY CLE ARTCC. THEY NOTIFIED THE CONTROLLER PRIOR TO THAT POINT THAT THEY WERE UNABLE TO MEET IT DUE TO WARMER THAN NORMAL TEMPERATURES. THE AIRCRAFT WAS ABOVE FL 380, HOWEVER, BECAUSE OF THE AUTOMATIC SYSTEMS THE AIRCRAFT WAS UNABLE TO REACH 390. THIS CAUSED A LOSS OF SEPERATION DOWN THE ROAD WITH A PERPENDICULAR AIRCRAFT AT 370. ACA 825 WAS NORTH OF DJB VORTAC (CLEVELAND) AT FL 350 PROCEEDING SOUTH TO "IAM". ACA 825 WAS QUESTIONED BY CLE ARTCC IF THEY COULD CLIMB TO 390, 5 MILES NORTH OF DJB VORTAC THEY SAID "YES". HOWEVER DUE TO WARMER THAN NORMAL TEMPERATURES (PLUS ISA) THE AIRCRAFT STALLED AROUND 380. THE CLE ARTCC QUESTIONED THE CREW TWO MINUTES AFTER THE CLEARANCE IF THEY COULD STILL MEET THE RESTRICTION AND THEY SAID "YES". BUT DUE TO THE TEMPERATURE THEY STOPPED CLIMBING AND SO ADVISED CLEVELAND CENTER WHILE STILL OUTSIDE OF THE CROSSING POINT. HOWEVER, MILES AHEAD THIS CAUSED A LOSS OF SEPARATION WITH A NWA 564 THAT WAS PROCEEDING EAST BOUND OVER THE "DJB" VORTAC AT 370. INCIDENT CLOSED BY SUBMISSION OF REPORT.

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System. Reports are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
