CAT A Class 2 Downwind Takeoff?
Here's one that has been doing the rounds recently. Anyone know if you can do a CAT A Class 2 downwind take off?
Looking in the RFM it says in all graphs that I can find tailwind is prohibited for CAT A. Therefore since Class 2 is grouped under CAT A along with PC1 etc.. It would seem that you cannot do this and you must use CAT B which has different profiles.
Looking at the post here I'm wondering if Class 2 refers only to Part of Class A certification I.e. The airframe regulations or to the performance side as well?
I know CHC used to do Class 2 departures downwind, however there seems to be a lot of confusion over the difference between class 2 and CAT B, with trainers sometimes assuming they are the same thing?
