Given that the 777 was likely accelerating at 5-6kts/sec, there must have been quite a long period in aviation terms after Vr (if it was called) where not much was happening. I do wonder what was going through peoples’ minds as the end of the runway got closer and closer and they were still on the ground getting faster and faster? Nobody ever gets sacked for following the flight director? I hope my Will is in order...?
