No idea where to look for that. Some of the VOL x from 8186 series will have notes on the essential geometry.

The present company SOP say at 100' above minima but also have +100' DDA policy. The endresult is very reasonable in VMC.

With 1000' AFE point around 3.8D JFK, one could imagine the ground track vector projection causing havoc onthe controller screens as the airplane rolls westward for the centerline.

In a similar fashion, one cannot blame them for expecting the traffic to treat an "on-procedure" WPT like CEMUG as a fly-over. Probably why it's there in the first place, 740' AFE
