Thanks for the example Escape Path.

I'm really worried about this, since I can't know for sure if the CAA where we fly, if you assume to use IAS, do they put a safety margin when calculating the gradient?

Maybe considering a worst case tailwind component and then project the procedure?

I really wanted some professional technical stuff about this, official documents about this. I've read all PANS-OPS Departures chapters and sections I could find, but they just don't mention which speed to use, just speed. Maybe I missed it doing in a quick glance, who knows.

No one else can share insight and their knowledge about this?
