From: various places .....
but you can't specify an exact when and where for every situation ... nor should you want to.

I wouldn't like to try that argument at the Royal Commission or Coronial ...

a close in turn increases the risk.

why is that ?

is it not better in these situations to have sensible terrain assessed engine out procedures that are uniform so easily applied and remembered

indeed and that is the purpose of general operating procedures in the absence of a specific EO SID. The very existence of a special procedure indicates that the runway is not a "standard departure" exercise.

Please keep in mind that every decision you take as commander is open to subsequent legal scrutiny in court .. whether you like it or not.
