(b) Engine Failure After Lift Off
If landing gear is still extended and the remaining runway / surface is adequate:
- Abort the take-off & land straight ahead, turning to avoid obstacles.
If the remaining runway / surface is inadequate:
- Decide whether to abort or to continue the take-off.
Continued take-off:
WARNING
A continued take-off is not recommended if the steady rate
of climb according to Section 5.3.9 - ONE ENGINE
INOPERATIVE CLIMB performance is less than 3.3 %. Under
certain combinations of ambient conditions, such as
turbulence, crosswinds and wind shear as well as pilot skill
the resulting climb performance may nevertheless be
insufficient to continue the take-off successfully. Therefore
a continued take-off with a failed engine has to be avoided
if at all possible.
