212man;

Cougar may be right. On the AS332 on take off from a runway, if I remember correctly we used to call TDP as the point the aircraft passed the single engine fly away speed and CDP was the point at which we couldn't reject the take off at all. One was speed based, and the other height and runway length remaining.

A Puma past VTOSS with 5000 feet of runway remaining could easily be flared and the TO rejected. I stand to be corrected as it is quite a while since I flew the Puma.
