IINM, this chart is to be used only in case of dispatch with LG down.

How to read it?

First of all, turn it by 90 degrees. Then you get a set of curves, each for a given initial weight.

These curves show altitude vs distance, ie. flight profile, both for descent and climb. Your net flight path has to clear the terrain en-route by, IIRC 2000 ft
