Scorpilot,
Thanks for your reply. I have experienced one RTO at 60kts on a A340 TOGA departure and yes, the swing is extreme but soon resolved by closing of the thrust levers. During my 38 years of airline flying I have done probably 20+ RTO`s and apart from the one above, they have all been for other than engine failure. ( a couple for an engine not spooling up properly) Your second sentence sums things up well - respond in a fashion commensurate with the speed achieved. This is why most airline have a Vo policy - ie. a stop speed for minor issues which will never be a stopping problem.
We are digressing from the original thread a bit namely when stopping on a Bus from a significant speed the AUTOBRAKES do an excellent job of delivering balanced braking and there should not be a rush to `stamp on the pedals` and get into manual braking mode especially when the speed is not too critical.
