Quote from stilton:
Whichever technique you decide to use choose one ! I have sat in the back on the runway as power is increased while the brakes are dragging with the aircraft in motion for hundreds of feet !
Not exactly sure what they were trying to do but that is definitely the worst of both worlds.

Amen to that. Not sure about hundreds of feet, but any are too many. It seems to be the norm now on B737s (CFM) with at least one British airline. Does it result from an SOP, to cover some engine issue or other?
