CS 29.87 Height-velocity envelope ED Decision 2003/16/RM (a) If there is any combination of height and forward velocity (including hover) under which a safe landing cannot be made after failure of the critical engine and with the remaining engines (where applicable) operating within approved limits, a height-velocity envelope must be established for: (1) All combinations of pressure altitude and ambient temperature for which take-off and landing are approved; and (2) Weight, from the maximum weight (at sea-level) to the highest weight approved for take-off and landing at each altitude. For helicopters, this weight need not exceed the highest weight allowing hovering out of ground effect at each altitude. (b) For single engine or multi-engine rotorcraft that do not meet the Category A engine isolation requirements, the height-velocity envelope for complete power failure must be established.
