CM1 incapacitation

hi empty Cruise

from what kind of a company do you guys come from, if you think that an F/O should always go for STOP because he cant fly the plane? If the guy next to you has a valid licence he should be able to do a circuit by him self.

Or if he gets another malfunction on the top. None of the scenarious trained, exept two engines out on a 3 or 4 engine A/C are considering double malfunctions as mandatory in a syllabus. So why the heck should it happen now. Ofcourse the remaining RWY is sufficient for STOP before V1, but getting close to it this option is fading fast.

I would consider following items relevant for a GO/STOP decision

1. Are controls free, the CM1 not blocking them
2. Stopmargin

Tendency in low speed would be STOP but if the situation is not clear, because speed increases rapidly, a GO will become more lucrative.

just my thoughts
