Checkerboard,

That's a very interesting point and one I had not thought about. Our SOP is to try and put the engine downwind and a mention of any x-wind is included in the briefing. According to someone who did an RTO on one of our Bus's the thing stopped so fast that before he thought about turning the a/c had come to a halt. Perhaps I ought to arrange a visit to the fire station on my next airport standby!.
