Acceleration to forward flight after an engine failure at the CDP can be accomplished by immediately rotating the helicopter to approximately 20 degrees nose down.

Gross weight, wind, density altitude, height of water or land, hostile environment etc. would be some of the factors affecting a pilot's decision.
