During a turboprop take-off, V1 could occur with 8,000 to 10,000 ft of runway remaining at an international airport. If an engine failure and a fire warning occured just after V1 ,would it not be prudent to cut all power and use the remaining runway for a controlled landing and shutdown if necessary. Just a thought from an old timer.
