Narrative:

Aircraft X was headed eastbound requesting a pop-up IFR clearance. Aircraft X advised they could maintain their own terrain and obstruction through 2000 feet. The controller issued 'cleared as filed reaching 2000 proceed direct ...' controller did not realize the slow climb rate of the aircraft. The controller realized the slow climb rate at the time the aircraft was just about to enter the 3000 foot MVA (minimum vectoring altitude). The aircraft was climbing out of 2700 feet when it entered and the controller turned the aircraft around to a heading of 180; then 270 as soon as he noticed the incident. A position relief briefing was being conducted at the time of the incident. The controllers should have not rushed through the relief briefing. The controller should have been aware of the slow rate of climb [of this type of aircraft.]
