An obstacle in the flight path segment requires 2.6 % climb gradient for safe clearance. The gradient is 2.8% at 110 000 kg gross weight.

With the same power settings and the sine of the angle of climb varying inversely with mass, the maximum mass at which the minimum climb gradient can be maintained is:

118 455 kg
108 430 kg
120 310 kg
102 450 kg
