SPO.POL.130 Take-off – complex motor-powered aeroplanes Regulation (EU) No 379/2014 (a) When determining the maximum take-off mass, the pilot-in-command shall take the following into account: (1) the calculated take-off distance shall not exceed the take-off distance available with a clearway distance not exceeding half of the take-off run available; (2) the calculated take-off run shall not exceed the take-off run available; (3) a single value of V1 shall be used for the rejected and continued take-off, where a V1 is specified in the AFM; and (4) on a wet or contaminated runway, the take-off mass shall not exceed that permitted for a take-off on a dry runway under the same conditions. (b) Except for an aeroplane equipped with turboprop engines and a maximum take-off mass at or below 5 700 kg, in the event of an engine failure during take-off, the pilot-in-command shall ensure that the aeroplane is able: (1) to discontinue the take-off and stop within the accelerate-stop distance available or the runway available; or (2) to continue the take-off and clear all obstacles along the flight path by an adequate margin until the aeroplane is in a position to comply with [SPO.POL.135](#_DxCrossRefBm927680679).
