A bit of logic:
At V1 the abort must have been initiated.
Hence, abort must have started before V1.
In order to avoid a wrong reflex and comply with former statement (keeping in mind that a go-minded decision is the best option) I remove my hand from the levers slightly before V1.
Hence, I do glance at my speed indicator and do not solely rely on the V1 call only.
411 A is right.
Wet versus dry screen height?
If the dry screen hight has been set for safety reasons then why is the wet screen height allowed to be lower?
Answer: The regulator did not want to imply big weight penalties in case of wet.
Referring to the standpoint of the NTSB in the Southwest (latest Flight Intl) overrun this makes the use of reversers very interesting in the wet case.
