j.t.:
My thoughts might be heresy for some of the more skilful folk.
However, my contention is that visual tracking for terrain clearance OEI in a heavy is arrant nonsense. Even in a light twin it's more than a bit tenuous, especially SP.
With the typical deck angles, it just isn't feasible to wing it on the fly.
Furthermore, the climb angles are so shallow (typically) that the human brain has great difficulty figuring whether or not the aircraft is really going up, flying level, or going down .. other than by rigorous attention to the IF scan.
Hence my boring and repetitive comments that the takeoff and miss, OEI, have to be preplanned with detailed attention to intended tracking and obstacle clearance.
Spot on. If a pilot is "winging it" in day VFR conditions, he might just pick the spot where impact will happen a bit later rather than sooner.
