Question

Guys are we talking about different application of definitions between FAA & EASA. ??

I fully understand the effect on wind on your flight path.
I am still talking about the performance required climb gradient to be achieved.

According CS25. This is a still air gradient.. ie required performance to be achieved...

I also understand that this required gradient does not give you obstacle clearance.

For obstacle clearance wind is considered to give your flight path angle,

pleas keep your view s coming... I want clarification..

Please give reference s if you have any. Thanks in advance
