Sec. 25.105 - Takeoff.
(a) The takeoff speeds described in §25.107, the accelerate-stop distance described in §25.109, the takeoff path described in §25.111, and the takeoff distance and takeoff run described in §25.113, must be determined -- (1) At each weight, altitude, and ambient temperature within the operational limits selected by the applicant; and (2) In the selected configuration for takeoff. (b) No takeoff made to determine the data required by this section may require exceptional piloting skill or alertness. (c) The takeoff data must be based on -- (1) In the case of land planes and amphibians: (i) Smooth, dry and wet, hard-surfaced runways; and (ii) At the option of the applicant, grooved or porous friction course wet, hard-surfaced runways. (2) Smooth water, in the case of seaplanes and amphibians; and (3) Smooth, dry snow, in the case of skiplanes. (d) The takeoff data must include, within the established operational limits of the airplane, the following operational correction factors: (1) Not more than 50 percent of nominal wind components along the takeoff path opposite to the direction of takeoff, and not less than 150 percent of nominal wind components along the takeoff path in the direction of takeoff. (2) Effective runway gradients. [Doc. No. 5066, 29 FR 18291, Dec. 24, 1964, as
