Our A319/A320 procedures are to raise the gear, cancel the lights, and toga if required.

Look at the fire at 1500 ft, the aircraft will climb out at 2500 fpm going through 1500 quickly with both running, much slower and more chance of hitting something on one engine.

Been shown both methods in the sim, ecam actions at 400 ft, or 1500 ft, I now like the 1500 ft method.

At 1500 ft the whole ecam procedure can be accomplished safely with the autopilot on, so the pilot flying can monitor the aircraft and the pnf carring out the checks, down low too much is happening to monitor the a/c and pnf.
