make a safe landing.

10.12  Take-off weight limitations
  The rotorcraft must have a maximum weight at take-off, for the flight, which does not exceed the lowest of the following weights:
 (a) the MTOW for the rotorcraft;
 (b) the all engines operative (AEO) hover out of ground effect (HOGE) weight that would allow acceleration from a vertical take-off profile for the environment;
 (c) the weight at which the rate of climb with 1 engine inoperative would be 150 ft per minute at a height of 1 000 ft above the departure aerodrome for the flight;
 (d) the weight at which, with 1 engine inoperative:
 (i) at the defined point after take-off for the rotorcraft; or
 (ii) at a height of 300 ft;
  the gradient of climb would be equal to the gradient of the obstacle-clear take-off surface;
 (e) the weight that, with 1 engine inoperative in the en route configuration, would allow a rate of climb of 50 ft per minute at the minimum flight altitude for each point in the en route stage of the flight;
 (f) the weight that, allowing for normal consumption of fuel in-flight to the planned destination aerodrome for the flight or destination alternate aerodrome, if required, for the flight, would allow the following with 1 engine inoperative:
 (i) a rate of climb of 150 ft per minute at a height of 1 000 ft above the planned destination aerodrome or destination alternate aerodrome;
 (ii) the landing distance required, for a landing of the rotorcraft, to equal the landing distance available, for a landing of the rotorcraft, at the planned destination aerodrome or destination alternate aerodrome.

10.13  Preventative maintenance
  The rotorcraft must have had all preventative maintenance actions completed for the rotorcraft and its engines, before the flight, as recommended, or required, for the rotorcraft and its engines by the holder of the rotorcraft's type certificate, or the holders of the type certificates for the rotorcraft and its engines.

10.14  Risk assessments
  The rotorcraft may only be flown in accordance with:
 (a) the rotorcraft operator's risk assessment procedures for PC2WE flight risks relevant to the rotorcraft; and
 (b) the rotorcraft operator's operational and airworthiness measures, which are used to mitigate identified risks.

10.15  Flight manual and exposition
  The rotorcraft may only be flown in accordance with:
 (a) the rotorcraft's flight manual procedures, if any, for PC2WE flights; and
 (b) the operator's exposition procedures for PC2WE flights.

10.16  Flight crew training and checking requirements
 (1) The rotorcraft may only be flown with flight crew members who have successfully completed all approved flight crew training and competency checking requirements.
 (2) In this section:
approved flight crew training and competency checking requirements means flight crew training and competency checking
