(a) A minimum speed shall be determined under the conditions specified below, such that when any one engine is suddenly made inoperative at that speed, it shall be possible to recover control of the airplane, with the one engine still inoperative, and to maintain it in straight flight at that speed, either with zero yaw or, at the option of the applicant, with a bank not in excess of 5 degrees. Such speed shall not exceed 1.3 Vs,, with:
(1) Take-off or maximum available power on all engines, (2) Rearmost center of gravity, (3) Flaps in take-off position, (4) Landing gear retracted.
(b) In demonstrating this minimum speed, the rudder force required to maintain it shall not exceed forces specified in §3.106, nor shall it be necessary to throttle the remaining engines. During recovery the airplane shall not assume any dangerous attitude, nor shall it require exceptional skill, strength, or alertness on the part of the pilot to prevent a change of heading in excess of 20 degrees before recovery is complete.
