departure proc gradient
A 2 Eng a/c needs to be able to acheive a 2nd segment gross grad of 2.4% with one enine out
A depature procedure requires an all engines op gradient of 3.3%
If i'm very light then I know that on one engine I can acheive 3.3% so then I could follow the SID and know that I'll clear all obstacles
But how can I quantify this precisely?
If I had a table of temp. head wind component a/c weight and climb gradient then I could formulate a much clearer plan of what to do rather than just climbing straight ahead to 1500ft or following an EOSID
Can airbus help me here or anyone
Thanks
