This goes to the heart of what I have been asking.

So if I use one of the "public" plates, then I just need to achieve 2.5%? I assume that will give me 35ft obstacle clearance up to the MSA. I can cope with that.

In a coded procedure, If you select the EO, you know that all of the mins have been accounted for.
How do you present the gradient info to the operator so that they can work out the maximum weights for a procedure, or do you crunch the performance numbers for an EO and provide that data to the operator?
