Fair question.

True about the trend arrow, but as I guess you know it's length varies with the derate, take-off weight and other factors. You'd expect a short trend arrow hauling out of, say, SIN bound for Europe and that's OK on a long runway...on the other hand is a long trend arrow long enough on a short runway? The bottom line is how do you know if the trend arrow you've got on the day is long enough for the runway length available??? ***** if I know.
