JT,
Re my story about abandon after V1.
I did not wish to present it as a suggested mode of operation but as an exception.
I'd probably have continued - that captain, on the day, did not. I've mulled that one over for years. Will publish when I come up with an answer.
I would move to exclude all the pilots who don't have 10,000 hours, who work for airlines who push V1 down the runway with Flex
I've met top rate pilots with a LOT less than 10k - and a couple of prats with more.
I'd be excluded because I've never worked for a jet outfit which did not use reduced thrust.
