@djayy.spam: V1 is called the decision speed. During the takeoff roll, it’s the last speed at which the pilot can reject the takeoff and still stop on the remaining runway. Once the aircraft passes V1: The runway left is shorter than the distance required to brake to a stop. Stopping would likely result in running off the end of the runway, which is extremely dangerous. Why continuing is safer than stopping At speeds above V1: Brakes alone may not be sufficient. Using reverse thrust takes time to deploy. Tires can overheat or fail. The aircraft may leave the runway or collide with obstacles continuing the takeoff: The aircraft is already close to flying speed. It can lift off, climb, and handle the problem in the air. Aircraft are certified to safely fly even if an engine fails at V1 How V1 is chosen V1 isn’t a fixed number. it’s calculated for each takeoff, based on: Aircraft weight Runway length and slope Weather (wet/contaminated runway) Aircraft performance and braking capability It’s specifically set so that: • Below V1 → stop is safer • Above V1 → go is safer #v1 #enginefailure #facts
