Twin Jet Takeoff

In a twin engine jet OEI just after takeoff, can it still fly with the gear down and go around? Think MD80s, RJs, 737, 757, 767, 777, Airbus etc. What about 1 gear down? I'm primarily interested in RJs.

I'm going to guess that at light weights the answer may universally be yes but at gross you might say "Houston we have problem".

I'm looking at a Functional Hazard Assessment that calls this Catastrophic. It may be that for design considerations but not so clear cut in practice.

Thanks,
