CAT.POL.H.205 Take-off Regulation (EU) No 965/2012 (a) The take-off mass shall not exceed the maximum take-off mass specified in the AFM for the procedure to be used. (b) The take-off mass shall be such that: (1) it is possible to reject the take-off and land on the FATO in case of the critical engine failure being recognised at or before the take-off decision point (TDP); (2) the rejected take-off distance required (RTODRH) does not exceed the rejected take-off distance available (RTODAH); and (3) the TODRH does not exceed the take-off distance available (TODAH). (4) Notwithstanding (b)(3), the TODRH may exceed the TODAH if the helicopter, with the critical engine failure recognised at TDP can, when continuing the take-off, clear all obstacles to the end of the TODRH by a vertical margin of not less than 10,7 m (35 ft). (c) When showing compliance with (a) and (b), account shall be taken of the appropriate parameters of [CAT.POL.H.105(c)](#_DxCrossRefBm318086473) at the aerodrome or operating site of departure. (d) That part of the take-off up to and including TDP shall be conducted in sight of the surface such that a rejected take-off can be carried out. (e) For take-off using a backup or lateral transition procedure, with the critical engine failure recognition at or before the TDP, all obstacles in the back-up or lateral transition area shall be cleared by an adequate margin.
