Don't hesitate to comment the video with your questions !!! Happy Landings!!!

[@lexydeny4669]

Great Video, want to ask if this climb gradients are designed with all engines operating?

[@PILOTCLIMB]

@@lexydeny4669 Hey, I hope you are doing great! Many thanks for watching! The SID climb gradients are designed with all engine operative, and normally the minimum SID climb gradient is 3.3%. The problem is that in case of an engine failure you might not be able to achieve this minimum climb gradient, so, for this reason, if you experience an engine failure on take off you don't fly the SID but the Engine Out Emergency Turn. By following the engine out departure you will be separated from the obstacles with one engine out. I hope I answered your question! Happy New Year! Gabriele

[@XXODD1982]

Easiest way i've learned was to multiple the groundspeed with the required min. climb gradient e.g : -> 200kts x 5,6% = 1120 feet per minute minimum climb rate

[@jairoramirez1077]

Hi captain. You have really good videos , and i have learned a lot from you. About this topic , sid and app charts . The climb gradients that they show on them are calculated by Taking in consideration when there is a engine failure so we can complete that mínimum film gradients ....::.:?. And when you refer to calcúlate the climb gradient so there is a special performance chart to do that for a B737 .. I hope you response soon. Thank you very much

[@PILOTCLIMB]

Hey, many thanks for watching and the comment!! I'm very happy the videos are helping you! The SIDs climb gradient doesn't take into account the engine failure case, that's why in case of an engine failure during take-off we perform a one engine out dedicated route. There are tables that depending on the weight of your aircraft and the weather will provide you with the climb gradient you can achieve. On top of that the aircraft FMC/FMS will constantly monitor if your climb performances are good enough to meet the requirements. I wish you a great day!!

Hello captain, I have a question. For that missed approach climb gradient, where can I find the exact percentage of aircraft performance? FPPM? Or AFM? I can not find any of climb rate. And the MACG is based on One engine performance, is that right? Thanks.

[@PILOTCLIMB]

Usually on the AFM performance you can find the tables regarding the missed approach climb gradient..

[@storyofwill]

Is it 2 eng operating or 1 en inop? Big difference what gradient you can make.

@@PILOTCLIMB ​ @PILOTCLIMB Hi, Thank you for taking the time to reply. I am actually practising flying on the simulator and found out that KORD does not have a SID, and I cannot fly IFR because there is not ATC in the Simulator, and in the case of VFR the scenery is too bad. I am open to any other methods for how to effectively climb and reach cruise in my situation.

[@daviddinan4110]

Does the required climb gradient on the SID consider All Engines Operating for the climb gradient or is it for One Engine Inoperable? Example, a 5% required climb gradient is easy with AEO but often a challenge with OEI.

[@PILOTCLIMB]

All engine, in case of engine failure you should follow the engine out route

Hey Captain Im an ATPL Student love your videos , what if you have to perform a GO AROUND after touch down and you obviously have descended below your DA but you dont have the required performance for the missed approach climb. what do you do in that case ?

You still follow the missed approach as it is the best option, that will provide the best separation from the obstacles.

Hi what about baulked landing and GA below minima?

[@PILOTCLIMB]

Hey, thanks for watching! The baulked landing is very low altitude (even after touchdown)/energy go-around. A GA below minima is a Go Around initiated below the Approach minima. Let me know if I answered your question

[@ad_akp1662]

@@PILOTCLIMB Well captain actually what I was trying to ask is See like we have got a min gradient to be followed in GA segment now as you mentioned in video say we have an obstacle in GA segment now in order to ensure terrain clearance classically DA becomes higher right? So that with standard GA gradient of 2.1% terrain clearance etc can be achieved. But say like in video if we increase GA segment required gradient and lower the minima I understood that in such a scenario of GA executed at DA/MDA with published gradient will ensure terrain clearance BUT what about the terrain clearance if say GA is performed Below DA/MDA or say we are executing a baulked landing? ( Cause may be in such a case even a higher climb gradient is maintained still it can breach terrain clearance floor just because GA is now executed from well below point)

[@PILOTCLIMB]

@@oldsportpilot142 Hello, the 2.5% climb gradient is a minimum or is a constant climb gradient throughout your missed approach?? 2.5% climb gradient means that for every 100meters horizontally you will climb 2.5meters..

Hi Gabriel another silly question. Is there any FMC scratch pad message in order not to comply the SID restriction depending on your weight because it never happened to me and there is nothing stated in FCOM or FMC companion as far as I know?. I always leaved the airplane in minimum clean configuration and set MCT in N1 limit pagae if I m in doubt to ensure max climb gradient up to desired altitude.

03:15 explanation incorrect. Correct is “X feet gained to Y Nautical miles distance traveled. “

[@ThatGuy-w8n]

So you're telling me that these measurements are based on the ground being flat. No matter if youre traveling 1 mile or 500mi at a constant climb angle, the ground is assumed to be flat. It has to be in order to have a constant climb rate/angle throughout the distance traveled. The earth is not curving away from underneath the aircraft as it flies forward. If this were the case, these calculations would have to account for the increase in altitude due to the Earth curving underneath the aircraft. In less than 100mi of distance there is over a mile of curvature according to Globe geometry. This extra mile of altitude would absolutely have to be accounted for in these calculations. If you were argument is that airplanes are following Earth curvature as they are climbing, flying straight and level and while the aircraft is making any and all other manuvers and at any and all possible speeds, understand that this argument is beyond ignorant. This is physically impossible and just plain ridiculous. If earth were curving, it would be extremely simple for a pilot to take off, level out the plane parallel to the ground beneath it at 500ft (or any altitude) then maintain a STRAIGHT LINE FLIGHT PATH and gain altitude as a result of the ground curving away from underneath the aircraft. In 90miles of the plane flying in a straight line from where it leveled off, the altitude would show the plane gain 5,400ft in altitude. There are hundreds of tracking devices on the market that could show the path of the airplane to show a flight path is straight and without any up/down deviation in its path. Dont tell me a plane cant gain altitude from 500ft to 6000ft or a plane cant fly in a straight line for 100miles. Fly the planeat the same speed needed to climb 5400ft in 100mi after the plane has leveled off at 500ft and maintain that speed throughout the straight line 100mi flight. We dont account for earth curve simply because there is no earth curvature. These climb and descend rates that are based on a flat ground, make the difference between life and death. 5400ft every 90 miles is not anything that could be considered, insignificant or negligible enough to be ignored. Earth is measurably and obviously flat. Planes can fly in a straight line. Reality cant be argued against it can only be denied.
