AMC1 CAT.POL.H.205 & CAT.POL.H.220 Take-off and landing ED Decision 2014/015/R APPLICATION FOR ALTERNATIVE TAKE-OFF AND LANDING PROCEDURES (a) A reduction in the size of the take-off surface may be applied when the operator has demonstrated to the competent authority that compliance with the requirements of [CAT.POL.H.205](#_DxCrossRefBm318086479), 210 and 220 can be assured with: (1) a procedure based upon an appropriate Category A take-off and landing profile scheduled in the AFM; (2) a take-off or landing mass not exceeding the mass scheduled in the AFM for a hover-out-of-ground-effect one-engine-inoperative (HOGE OEI) ensuring that: (i) following an engine failure at or before TDP, there are adequate external references to ensure that the helicopter can be landed in a controlled manner; and (ii) following an engine failure at or after the landing decision point (LDP), there are adequate external references to ensure that the helicopter can be landed in a controlled manner. (b) An upwards shift of the TDP and LDP may be applied when the operator has demonstrated to the competent authority that compliance with the requirements of [CAT.POL.H.205](#_DxCrossRefBm318086479), 210 and 220 can be assured with: (1) a procedure based upon an appropriate Category A take-off and landing profile scheduled in the AFM; (2) a take-off or landing mass not exceeding the mass scheduled in the AFM for a HOGE OEI ensuring that: (i) following an engine failure at or after TDP compliance with the obstacle clearance requirements of [CAT.POL.H.205](#_DxCrossRefBm318086479) (b)(4) and [CAT.POL.H.210](#_DxCrossRefBm318086483) can be met; and (ii) following an engine failure at or before the LDP the balked landing obstacle clearance requirements of [CAT.POL.H.220](#_DxCrossRefBm318086486) (b) and [CAT.POL.H.210](#_DxCrossRefBm318086483) can be met. (c) The Category A ground level surface area requirement may be applied at a specific elevated FATO when the operator can demonstrate to the competent authority that the usable cue environment at that aerodrome/operating site would permit such a reduction in size.
