CS-VLA 361 Engine torque ED Decision 2003/18/RM (a) The engine mount and its supporting structure must be designed for the effects of - (1) A limit engine torque corresponding to take-off power and propeller speed acting simultaneously with 75% of the limit loads from flight condition A of [CS-VLA 333(d)](#_DxCrossRefBm584936674); (2) The limit engine torque as specified in [CS-VLA 361(b)](#_DxCrossRefBm584936690) acting simultaneously with the limit loads from flight condition A of [CS-VLA 333(d)](#_DxCrossRefBm584936674); and (b) The limit engine torque to be considered under subparagraph (a)(2) of this paragraph must be obtained by multiplying the mean torque for maximum continuous power by a factor determined as follows: (1) For four-stroke engines - (i) 1·33 for engines with five or more cylinders, (ii) 2, 3, 4 or 8, for engines with four, three, two or one cylinders, respectively. (2) For two-stroke engines - (i) 2 for engines with three or more cylinders, (ii) 3 or 6, for engines with two or one cylinder respectively.
