Buzz Box, thanks for your continued input and the quote from the 777 SB regarding main gear steering. I notice you would NOT reject a high speed take off in the instance of getting a config warning for 'parking brake set' shortly before V1. As Boeing have said on record, there are times when spurious warnings occur. I entirely agree with the GO call in this event, assuming I had the brain capacity to work it out at that stage! Either way, a decision has to be made.
The interesting thing here is that we are now saying that even in the event of receiving a Master Warning red light and associated aural, there MAY be occaisions when the safest course of action is to continue the take off. This is how I previously understood life to be in the Boeing philosophy........
