why do LEBL in the AIP insist acceleration begins after take off at 3500feet as against the normal 3000feet else where
Hello all,

A carefull reading of the noise abatement procedures in BCN, tells us that if we are following an RNAV SID, almost the only limitation is reaching the designated altitudes at the relevant points, without mentioning the procedure.
The 3500 ft acceleration only aplies for aircraft flying conventional SID's or not able to comply with the mentioned altitudes.

The very important thing is starting the turn at 500', at least if you are sunbathing in Gavá beach
