Your quote; “As I said before, unless I'm faced with an un-flyable airplane, when V1 arrives, I am going flying.”

Hmm I lost an engine on a 767 at V1 max wgt and did a RTO and safely stopped with 4000ft remaining. The ‘go’ ‘no go’ decision should also depend upon the circumstances and that’s why maintaining situational awareness is so important. I would question your judgment if you went flying with 7000ft of runway remaining after an engine failure.
