pilottj Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 Tom C posed an interesing question in the A320 HQM picture post thread. How would the NGX handle an RTO at HQM? So I decided to try it out 737-700WL Full Fuel, approx 67% payload. Cool weather with calm wind from the north east, departing rwy 6. Short Field package option installed, Flaps 25, held brakes to TOGA power and released. Carbon brakes installed with autobrakes set to RTO. Reaching V1 a little past midfield. Rejected Takeoff with a little spare room. Here you can see the flgiht data on the FMS and MFD...brakes a bit warm. The thrust reversers are quite powerful, powerful enough for power backing at max weights. Without thrustreverse, probably would have ended up in the grass lol.

Tom C Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 He he, now try it with the 900! My plan when ever I got time was the 600, but that was going to be reasonable easy all things considered. Well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oltimer Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 I might be mistaken but thought at/after V1 that RTO shouldn't be executed and takeoff is a must unless something detrimental has happened? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
