by the rotorcraft at all stages of the flight; or
            Note   A suitable forced landing area is considered available if the flight crew: (a) can see it using natural vision and available lighting, or using their NVIS; and (b) can safely reach it from the rotorcraft's current position in the flight.
            (B) the operator, the pilot and the rotorcraft meet each applicable requirement mentioned in section 9.05; or
(e) subject to subsection (2), a multi-engine rotorcraft operated with OEI accountability.

(a) it is landing at, or taking off from, an ESO operating site outside an AWZ;
(b) it is being operated, at an ESO operating site, in accordance with the operator's operational risk assessment process under Chapter 13 for a Class D external load (that is, a person being rescued or the insertion or extraction of emergency service personnel);
(c) when it departs from the ESO operating site it is able, from 300 ft above the site, to do the following until it reaches the minimum flight altitude for a point on the route for the flight:
           (i) be operated at a weight at which the rate of climb with one engine inoperative would be at least 150 ft per minute at a height of 1 000 ft above the departure ESO operating site for the flight;
