Thank God .. at last, Mutt is a convert to the theology of overspeed takeoffs ...

For ID,

improved climb = overspeed takeoff

is a simple tradeoff. Minimum speed schedule for takeoff is well below best climb performance speeds .. ergo .. if you have a bunch of spare runway (considering obstacle problems) often you can increase the speed schedule to achieve a better V2 climb performance. This may increase your RTOW, depending on what was limiting for the basic calculation. In general, it is well worth having a looksee to check what the situation is for a given set of circumstances.

Important to keep in mind that there are quite a few ticks in the boxes needed before you end up with the best weight calculation .. sometimes a bit of pushing and pulling with the calculations can yield significant benefits.

Improved climb T/O helps our 777-300ER's a bit out of VHHH on a hot day.

At 351.5 ( MTOW ) the V2 is about 192 !! passing 100' the TAS is up to 210 kts already !!
