| (1) | No person shall conduct a take-off in an aeroplane if the mass of the aeroplane is greater than the mass specified in the aeroplane flight manual as allowing a net take-off flight path that clears all obstacles by at least 35 feet vertically or at least 62 meters horizontally within the aerodrome boundaries and by at least 95 meters horizontally outside those boundaries. |
| (2) | In the determination of the maximum mass, minimum distances and flight path referred to in subregulation (1)— |
| (a) | corrections shall be made for— |
| (i) | the runway to be used; |
| (ii) | the runway slope in the direction of take-off; |
| (iii) | the pressure-altitude at the aerodrome; |
| (iv) | the ambient temperature: and |
| (v) | the wind component at the time of take-off, where not more than 50 per cent of the reported headwind component or not less than 150 per cent of the reported tailwind component may be considered; and |
| (b) | calculations shall be based on the pilot— |
| (i) | not banking the aeroplane before reaching an altitude of 50 feet; |
| (ii) | subject to subregulation (3), using 15 degrees or less of bank at or below 400 feet; |
| (iii) | using no more than 25 degrees of bank thereafter, aeroplane speed and configuration permitting; and |
| (c) | consideration of the effects of any crosswind and navigation accuracy shall be taken into account. |
| (3) | A bank angle greater than the 15 degrees referred to in subregulation (2)(b)(ii) may be used if it is authorized by the Director. |
