Here is an online doc that uses BCOP to analyze the performance climbs for Westjet. http://www.smartcockpit.com/data/pdf...Operations.pdf

This climb out perf is all engine. Note how many variants, depending on temperature and altitude, have a climb rate below 2% All engine.
When you look at BCOP and the performance, hot places like Australia, many variants have EO climb gradients on the order of 1%. This offer no protection from the terrain and obstacle assessments, thus a custom terrain/obstacle clearance is needed, or the weights will be severely restricted.


You've dug yourselves into a hole if you want the world to believe that you can fly jets without having single engine performance that meets the departure and MAP profile.
Again, nothing in the criteria, including the procedures, addresses Engine out.

thats rather humorous, you telling Terpster he needs to understand how aircraft are certified.
