37.5 angle of bank

I was under the impression that basic simulator training concentrates a large period of time in dealing with engine failures before and after V1 and EFATO training inline with the aircraft certification.

I was also under the impression that EFATO procedures are to select gear up and be at v2 or v2 + 10 at 35 feet. Then continue to climb to a minimum of 400 feet agl, straight ahead (unless an emergency turn is stated fro the runway in use) (in other words ignore the SID). At 400 feet or higher (800 for most operators) level acceleration for flap retraction, and attain best angle of climb speed,then select MCP and continue to 1500 feet AAL. Then manouever. This will keep the aircraft in the SPLAY and guarantee at least 35 feet obstacle clearance (nett flight path).

It has been my experience that a lot of pilots are poorly trained in this procedure and new pilots not trained in the theory.
