Narrative:
After departure given heading of 360; climb to 7;000 feet. Approaching level off we received a TCAS RA due to crossing arrival traffic (right to left) at 8;000 feet. Traffic was in sight prior to event and throughout event. We leveled off at 7;000 feet. No separation was lost. Aircraft was climbing rapidly to 7;000 due to light weight. The rate of approach triggered the TCAS RA. As pilot flying I should have intervened and reduced our rate of climb upon seeing the traffic and potential conflict. This was my first leg back after two months not flying.
