If you have a rejected take off,is that taken in consideration as a leg ,because you have to write a slip in technical log.So if you are planned for 5 sectors in a day(maximum permitted in many companies) and you are experienced a rejected take off,could you fly the last one sector?
best rgds.

Yes, in most jurisdictions you could. A sector implies a Takeoff and a landing at another point (A circuit is not a sector).

As there's no landing at another point, an RTO does not count as a sector, but, various jurisdictions, Company Policies, and Industrial agreements may vary.

Its not considered a sector.
a sector= take and landing. Reject= u never did take off and u certainly didnt land.:ok:

The definition of "IN FLIGHT" in the UK used to be when an aircraft first moves under it's own power "for the purpose of flight". I also think that moving off also defines when you change from the MEL to the QRH for fault handling.
Therefore you could taxi out, do your pre take off checks, snag something, taxi back, and log it as flight time without becoming airborne.

Don't know if it's a sector though:ok:
