(1) | A person may not conduct a take-off in an aircraft if a mass of an aircraft— |
(a) | exceeds the MTOM specified in an aircraft flight manual for a pressure altitude and an ambient temperature at an aerodrome where such a take-off is to be made; or |
(b) | after allowing for planned fuel consumption during a flight to a destination aerodrome or alternate aerodrome, exceeds a landing mass specified in an aircraft flight manual for a pressure altitude and an ambient temperature at a destination aerodrome or alternate aerodrome. |
(2) | For the purposes of determination of MTOM referred to in subregulation (1)— |
(a) | a required accelerate-stop distance shall not exceed an accelerate-stop distance available; |
(b) | a required take-off run shall not exceed a take-off run available; and |
(c) | a required take-off distance shall not exceed a take-off distance available. |
(3) | The following factors shall be taken into account for the purposes of subregulation (2)— |
(a) | mass of an aircraft; |
(b) | specific operating procedures; |
(c) | pressure altitude at an aerodrome; |
(d) | ambient temperature; |
(e) | runway slope in a direction of take-off; |
(f) | reported headwind component, which shall not more than 50 percent; |
(g) | reported tailwind component, which shall not be less than 150 percent; |
(h) | loss of effective take-off run available during runway alignment except where rolling take-off is approved; |
(i) | where a runway condition is other than bare and dry, appropriate penalty based upon a runway condition or contaminates such as slope, ice, snow, slush, standing water or water surfaces for seaplanes, shall be factored into a performance calculation; and |
(j) | any other factor that may significantly affect an aircraft performance. |
