Are all APG Engine-Out Procedures (EOPs) based on a minimum gross flight path target of 2.4%?

No, not all APG EOPs are based on a 2.4% gross flight path for the second segment. Instead, APG limits the maximum allowable takeoff weight to comply with the climb performance limitations published in the Aircraft Flight Manual (AFM). For EOPs specifically, the takeoff weight is further restricted to ensure that the aircraft can clear all obstacles and terrain within the Obstacle Accountability Area (OAA) by at least 35 feet using the net flight path, not the gross path. This ensures compliance with regulatory and safety requirements across all relevant flight segments.
