And that's a comment that supports Guppy's idealistic assertion that all planes fly after V1 on takeoff...no matter what...broken wings, flocks of birds in the engines, flaps coming off, bad fuel(skydivers/Ca), O2 Cannister Fire(valuejet), EFIS Fire(Nova Scotia), tire/fuel fire(Concord) and why some airline pilots just keep flying to the scene of the accident, because the book said the plane would fly.
