EXPEDITE

  Used by ATC when prompt com­

pliance is required to avoid the development of an 
imminent situation. Expedite climb/descent normal­
ly indicates to a pilot that the approximate best rate 
of climb/descent should be used without requiring an 
exceptional change in aircraft handling characteris­
tics.
