Narrative:
Left sfo on flight on the offshore 1 departure runway 01L. There was another aircraft (air carrier) taking off on runway 01R. We were told that as soon as he broke ground we would be able to takeoff. Just as the other aircraft took off we were released. Enclosed is the SID. The sun was just setting at the time. The tower had said he had lost the other aircraft through the broken layers of clouds. We delayed our turn because we could not see him and we could not maintain visibility sep under these conditions. Departure asked us to turn. We did after we knew we were clear of the other aircraft.

Title: ACR MLG DELAYS WESTWARD TURN ON SID AS HE LOSES DEP TRAFFIC OFF PARALLEL RWY WHO IS SCHEDULE FOR A RIGHT, EASTERLY TURN.
Narrative: LEFT SFO ON FLT ON THE OFFSHORE 1 DEP RWY 01L. THERE WAS ANOTHER ACFT (ACR) TAKING OFF ON RWY 01R. WE WERE TOLD THAT AS SOON AS HE BROKE GND WE WOULD BE ABLE TO TKOF. JUST AS THE OTHER ACFT TOOK OFF WE WERE RELEASED. ENCLOSED IS THE SID. THE SUN WAS JUST SETTING AT THE TIME. THE TWR HAD SAID HE HAD LOST THE OTHER ACFT THROUGH THE BROKEN LAYERS OF CLOUDS. WE DELAYED OUR TURN BECAUSE WE COULD NOT SEE HIM AND WE COULD NOT MAINTAIN VIS SEP UNDER THESE CONDITIONS. DEP ASKED US TO TURN. WE DID AFTER WE KNEW WE WERE CLR OF THE OTHER ACFT.
