I am sorry...your right Mad...5%......5% of the high speed RTOs had accidents..

Again how many were off shore, bad pilots, short runways, guys running derate, guys that couldn't brake, over gross, ect ect ect..

I'll take my chances, with a high speed RTO, just based on statistics alone in that I don't fly over gross, I can pull the levers back and step on the pedals...I do the flight planning and thus have a clue where my balanced field shakes out against runway length...

Do what you guys want...fly the emergency up in the air, because you painted yourselves into the corner with an assumed thrust departure...honestly I don't care...congress doesn't care, the public doesn't care, the FAA doesn't care...

All I can do is run my flight dept the right way..

Still here, I still remain.
