I remember it well, it was done very well in my session.
No, like I stated earlier no particular training was conducted during my RST. We did have some issues with the sim which limited our time available.

Regardless, I already retracted my statement. Case closed.

Reject or not?
Continue in my book.

My experience is far from extensive and I have never experienced an RTO in my career. If it were up to me, I'd stick to the book in these situations. I will not partake in the blaming game so I'm not judging what happened here. But if it were me, yes, heavy flight controls after Vr is still a continue.
