After that, we'll take it airborne and handle it as an airborne emergency. Unless of course we feel like we really ought to keep it on the ground, then we'll make up our mind on the fly past V1 up to say, 30 more knots, and we might stop or we might go. I'll let you know. If we do elect to reject, I will retard the thrust levers to idle and apply reverse. We will use the takeoff autobrakes. Back me up on the speed brake handle, note the airspeed for brake energy, and notify the tower of our situation. Once airborne..."<
