BWB.......The report on this thread was "while they waited"..... I didn't see any reference to a specific time frame. I can assume the crew was well aware of the need to comply to the advice of RTO procedures after an actual one. During my time on 757/767 I can recall many instances of especially 767-300 heavy RTO's that even initiated at 80knots (after which automatic RTO operates,if armed).... nearly every time a heavy 76-300 aborted with RTO armed, there was damage of some sort to the landing gear, thus putting the aircraft back in the barn B4 next flight.

I know...the airline in the thread operates only 757-200's.
