The instructor who thought of this scenario should seriously reconsider the probabilities and hence the training value. A simple reference to the certification requirements or cross check with the manufacturer will help put things into perspective.
This issue is symptomatic of many of the industry’s training problems – the human fascination with the extreme – where we tend to over focus on the rare situations; humans like to fantasize ‘what if I was there’ and ‘how would I have coped’.
For example, there have only been two notable loss of flight control accidents in 10 years, but lets assume 1 rare situation of this severity per year. However, there are at least 5 major commercial CFITs and over 20 overruns per year just for starters; these and other accidents are the key issues to focus on. Many of these ‘routine’ events are actually failures to correctly identifying the situation; the training must address the threat - a possible imbalance of 25:1 with an incorrect focus. The real threat situations are dominated by human error; many instructors contribute to this with an inappropriate focus on rare events.
Attempting to fly with no hyds most probably will result in a crash, stopping without brakes, a similar result, what’s the training value? This is a confidence destroying and negative perspective of incorrect situation assessment / decision making in an unrealistic scenario.
There would be more training value by generating a loud bang before / after V1 without any warnings. To make the bang unusual and surprising try dropping the Jep bag on the sim floor! Then induce severe vibration; is it engine or tyre? But the important question / decision is stop or go!!!
