Narrative:

A night, maximum gross weight takeoff was executed on runway 28L at sfo. The assigned SID required a quick right turn and a radial intercept for tracking outbound. As so on this flight, I was not in possession of a published SID since my airline no longer issues them to so's. I am, however, fairly familiar with the procedure for that runway. After takeoff, we began our climb and a shallow bank to the right (5-10 degrees). It became apparent that the captain was not making the required 25 degree bank. At approximately 1000 ft AGL I asked the captain if 'he was going to clear the ridge line we were headed toward.' he increased his pitch angle and we cleared the san bruno hills by approximately 200 ft AGL (based on a GPWS warning and our configuration at the time). Fortunately we were in sufficient VMC to visually assure clearing the obstacle: had we flown this route with lower visibility or ceiling the outcome could have been different. I believe this problem occurred (was contributed to by) because charts for some airports do not depict in sufficient detail the ground track, obstacles, etc, for individuals to analyze the immediate track(south) after takeoff: so's are not provided sids so their expertise is cut out or diminished at this critical phase of flight.

Title: CAPT OF A WDB FAILS TO TURN AS SOON AS REQUIRED DURING A SID DEP RESULTING IN A GPWS WARNING OF HIGH TERRAIN.

Narrative: A NIGHT, MAX GROSS WT TKOF WAS EXECUTED ON RWY 28L AT SFO. THE ASSIGNED SID REQUIRED A QUICK R TURN AND A RADIAL INTERCEPT FOR TRACKING OUTBOUND. AS SO ON THIS FLT, I WAS NOT IN POSSESSION OF A PUBLISHED SID SINCE MY AIRLINE NO LONGER ISSUES THEM TO SO'S. I AM, HOWEVER, FAIRLY FAMILIAR WITH THE PROC FOR THAT RWY. AFTER TKOF, WE BEGAN OUR CLB AND A SHALLOW BANK TO THE R (5-10 DEGS). IT BECAME APPARENT THAT THE CAPT WAS NOT MAKING THE REQUIRED 25 DEG BANK. AT APPROX 1000 FT AGL I ASKED THE CAPT IF 'HE WAS GOING TO CLR THE RIDGE LINE WE WERE HEADED TOWARD.' HE INCREASED HIS PITCH ANGLE AND WE CLRED THE SAN BRUNO HILLS BY APPROX 200 FT AGL (BASED ON A GPWS WARNING AND OUR CONFIGURATION AT THE TIME). FORTUNATELY WE WERE IN SUFFICIENT VMC TO VISUALLY ASSURE CLRING THE OBSTACLE: HAD WE FLOWN THIS RTE WITH LOWER VISIBILITY OR CEILING THE OUTCOME COULD HAVE BEEN DIFFERENT. I BELIEVE THIS PROB OCCURRED (WAS CONTRIBUTED TO BY) BECAUSE CHARTS FOR SOME ARPTS DO NOT DEPICT IN SUFFICIENT DETAIL THE GND TRACK, OBSTACLES, ETC, FOR INDIVIDUALS TO ANALYZE THE IMMEDIATE TRACK(S) AFTER TKOF: SO'S ARE NOT PROVIDED SIDS SO THEIR EXPERTISE IS CUT OUT OR DIMINISHED AT THIS CRITICAL PHASE OF FLT.
