Sorry, but I have to disagree. In the SIM you get the same canned exercise year after year. I have 20 years of flying, and have never seen a reason to abort a fter V1, especially in the SIM. But I have landed on a runway covered in geese at night, and I struck a few in the flare. Had it been during take off there is a good chance I would have lost both engines. Dual engine failure after V1 is never trained in the SIM, to enforce the habit of aborting, because it is correct 99.9% of the time. But it is not correct 100% of the time.
