"I witnessed the incident from the Multiflight side of the airfield and it was definitely no laughing matter. The Citation was just airborne when the decision was made to abort so was travelling at around Vr and the pilot immediately put down on the runway (14)."
Hate to say it; but if he was airborne and therefore past V1 why on earth did he consider landing again, wonder what was briefed prior to departure? were was he trained to land back on the runway after V1?
