BTW, how do you get the nice blue background when doing a quote of someone else's offering?
copy paste the quote into

But,
Exactly my point! Depending on what the limiting factor was, they may or may not be off the end, where in a true balanced field calc. they would have been. Tosh yerself!
isn't true.

If they did a balanced field and Stopway was available then they may well be able to stop after V1 using the stopway that wasn't included in the calculation.

I would say if they used V1max or took off at MTOW Field limited using an unbalanced calculation then they would definitely be off the end if they tried to stop above V1 but for any other calc the jury is out.

However, you have to be pretty sure you can't fly to risk trying to stop. Lots of cases of rejecting above V1 ending in death. Not many cases of going ending the same way.
