TO Performance: Low V1 on WET RWY
Hey Folks!
What would be the benefit of a lower V1 on a wet runway if the take off is not field length limited at all? I would be talking about a lightly loaded E-Jet on a 4000m runway on a standard day. The runway has no significant CWY or SWA.
The performance tool always gives quite a low V1 and thus a big V1/Vr-split (usually around 10kts) as soon as a wet runway is selected (same Vr with almost V1=Vr on dry runway). Sadly there is no option to select/force a higher V1. Sadly the tool doesn’t display the stop margin at all, which makes it tougher to comprehend its calculations.
