Example of performance profile

What the FF-ICE/R1 Implementation Guidance says

The performance profile is a zero-wind, standard atmosphere profile reflective of the flight capabilities and desired parameters. It does not include any flight-specific constraints such as altitude or speed restrictions applicable to the route of flight. However, it does incorporate constraints that are always applicable (e.g., a 250 knot constraint applicable to all flights below 10,000 feet), and gradients required for obstacle clearance along the route of flight.

A performance profile is expressed as a sequence of profile points each containing: distance, time duration, flight level or altitude, and optionally the true airspeed.

Climb profiles begin at take-off with distance and time expressed relative to the point associated with take-off, nominally the “Wheels Off” point. Climb profiles end at the maximum operational cruise altitude for the specific route/trajectory.

Descent profiles begin at a top-of-descent at the maximum operational cruise altitude for the specific route/trajectory. Time and distance are expressed relative to the top-of-descent. Descent profiles end at touchdown.
