A simplified way of considering Landing Climb (AEO in the Landing Config) and the Approach Climb (OEI in the Missed Approach config) is to compare them to the WAT limits. Both provide a certain guarantee of aircraft performance, with no considerations whatsoever for Obstacle Clearance.

It is up to the wise operator to "marry" the two into a hopefully, harmonious relationship.

Feel free to "thread creep" all you like J_T, keep the thread alive and all that you know. Might give some time to hear Mutt's opinion of handling obstacle clearance during the missed approach, his silence is noticeable, and his opinion is, as always, worth it's weight in gold!
