You are conducting a PERTH FIVE DEPARTURE (RADAR) from RWY 06 at PERTH, WA (YPPH), if your
climb TAS is 120 knots and there is a 20 knots headwind, which of the following rates of climb will
be the minimum to meet the requirement of the procedure?
A. 490 FPM
B. 470 FPM
C. 570 FPM
D. 410 FPM
E. 340 FPM
* Hi would the answer be 120 x 4% = 480fpm ( as its radar so dont compensate for wind)
So, don't compensate when being radar vectored (eg. when ATC tells you), but yes, do compensate when departure routes are expressed as tracks.
