IIRC there's a segment for which (I believe for a twin) the climb gradient requirement is actually 0%. Can someone confirm o correct this?

the interesting thing is that these are only instantaneous gradients, you dont have to maintain them for the complete second segment!
Funny, I just had a mental picture of an airplane on 2nd segment pulling G's from time to time during the climb to "meet the instantaneous requirement"
