Second, very few extra knots at the initiation of the high speed reject adds lots of knots at overrun point. Something like 5 knots extra at the first initiation results in 40-60 knots at the runway end.
I would very much like to see excel calculations supporting this.
Very easy to do, just requires a bit of time.
Double integration with a short Δ, just assume constant realistic values for deceleration and you should have a very clear idea of whether this sentence can be deemed true or false based on simple science.
