Narrative:

Santiago; chile; eslar 3 departure P 20-3A depicts the desit and eslar intxns as 'flyover' intxns with turn back to course as opposed to fly-by intxns. The FMS depicts the departure with lead points to the outbound courses; thus makes them fly-by points. Considering the terrain in the area; this could be important. How should this departure be flown?...with flyover points or fly-by points?
