CITATION ENCORE PLT HAS AN ALTDEV DURING CLB ON PUBLISHED SID.

Narrative

DURING CLBOUT ON THE SHEAD 4 SID FROM RWY 19L AT LAS; I WAS GIVEN A CLRNC THAT SET UP THIS SCENARIO THAT EVOLVED INTO A VERY SERIOUS ALTDEV. THINGS WERE HAPPENING AT A VERY FAST PACE AND MY RECOLLECTIONS ARE AS FOLLOWS: AT APPROX 5000 FT MSL; I WAS ABLE TO CONTACT LAS DEP AS THE FREQ WAS BUSY; AS USUAL. THE CTLR CAME BACK AND SAID 'CLB TO FL190' AND THEN ADDED 'COMPLY WITH RESTRS.' BY THE TIME SHE SAID 'COMPLY WITH RESTRS;' I HAD ALREADY SET IN FL190 ON THE ALT PRESELECTOR. WHEN GIVEN A NEW ALT TO CLB TO; PLTS WILL ENTER THIS NEW ALT IN THE ALT PRESELECTOR AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE TO PRECLUDE A RAPIDLY CLBING ACFT FROM STARTING A LEVELOFF ON THE AUTOPLT. SINCE I WAS CLBING VERY RAPIDLY WITH AN INITIAL ASSIGNED ALT OF 7000 FT; I HAD BEEN VERY QUICK TO ENTER THE FL190 IN THE ALT PRESELECTOR TO PRECLUDE AN UNNECESSARY LEVELOFF. WHEN THE CTLR THEN ADDED 'COMPLY WITH RESTRS;' I WAS COMPLETELY CAUGHT OFF GUARD AS TO HER MEANING. I INITIALLY DID NOT UNDERSTAND WHAT TYPE OF RESTRS SHE WAS REFERRING TO. I HAVE FLOWN OUT OF LAS FOR MANY YRS AND NEVER RECEIVED THIS PHRASEOLOGY DURING THE CLBOUT. SINCE THE ALT PRESELECTOR WAS NOW SET ON FL190; THE ACFT OBVIOUSLY WOULD NOT LEVEL OFF AT 7000 FT AND CONTINUED ITS CLB. BY THE TIME I WAS ABLE TO GLIMPSE THE SID CHART AND REVIEW THE CHART RESTRS; I WAS THROUGH 7000 FT AND CLBING. VERY QUICKLY AFTER MY INITIAL GLANCE AT THE CHART TO FIGURE OUT WHAT TYPE OF 'RESTRS' SHE WAS REFERRING TO; I RECEIVED A TA ON THE TCAS AND WAS THEN REQUIRED TO PAY ATTN TO THE TCAS. I DON'T REMEMBER WHAT THE RELATIVE ALT READING WAS ON THE TCAS; BUT IT DIDN'T SEEM THAT CLOSE; SO I MADE THE ASSUMPTION THAT IT WAS PROBABLY DUE TO MY RAPID RATE OF CLB THAT GAVE A CLOSURE RATE ALERT. AT THIS SAME TIME THE CTLR CALLED ME AND ALLUDED TO THE FACT THAT I SHOULD STILL BE AT 7000 FT. WITH THE AMOUNT OF ACTIVITY GOING ON IN MY COCKPIT AT THIS POINT; I TURNED THE AUTOPLT OFF AND STARTED DSNDING OUT OF 8200 FT BACK TO 7000 FT AND TRYING NOT TO PUT MY PAX INTO THE CEILING SINCE I WAS CLBING AT CLOSE TO 3500 FPM. BY THE TIME I GOT BACK TO 7000 FT; MANUALLY FLYING THE ACFT; I HAD JUST PASSED A FIX THAT REQUIRED A CLB TO A HIGHER ALT. AT THIS POINT; I WAS WAY BEHIND THE ACFT AND THE SID AND DESPERATELY TRYING TO CATCH UP WITH THE 'COMPLY WITH RESTRS' AND THE ACFT EFFECTIVELY BACK ON THE AUTOPLT SO I COULD THEN REVIEW ANY FURTHER RESTRS ON ALT AND COMPLY.
