I think I did read losing some power on the right, in concert with lowering the nose may have been successful.
Interesting, flying my first light twin - many moons ago - the instructor suggested that more people had been killed due to the assymetric issues of losing an engine in take-off, then had by losing the sole engine on a single under similar circumstances, and suggested that in that event one might consider closing the throttle on the remaining good engine and land straight ahead, just like a single.
Just a thought.
