I was following the NADP1 for this SID out of EGSS. I found this in a FCOM, Enter max 220kts when no speed is specified in the FMC for initial turns on SID to assure track keeping. But in a busy place like london TMA the controller will want you climbing out alot faster and at the same speeds. But what do i know as i don't fly in the RW. Thanks for that advice and heads up

So if you haven't got an immediate turn after TO and you're above 400AGL, you can start a turn while retracting flaps?
