 **create_mission_xml** sets the target/end points of these flight segments which will later be connected by [Mission Analysis](../../analysis/mission_analysis/index.md). Those target points are saved into the `mission file` in which they are categorized as `departure_steps`, `cruise_steps` and `approach_steps`. What this `mission_file` contains in detail can be found in the [Getting Started](getting_started.md).

-After reaching $10\,000\,ft$ the aircraft accelerates to the next higher speed limit `CAS_over_flight_level_100_climb` which is usually $300\,kts$ calibrated airspeed. Again, you can change this in the aircraft XML, but when you want to stick to current regulations, you should keep $300\,kts (= 154.3334 m/s)$. Then the aircraft keeps on climbing until the `initial_cruise_altitude` from where it accelerates to the `initial_cruise_mach_number` without climbing any further. In the table above, only one flight level change is displayed. How many of them will be initiated can be determined in the following way:
