Classic British Flight Sim

Well speaking personally, I don't know what the V1 calculation was for this departure, or the speed the aircraft reached before someone called 'Stopping', with its relationship to the calculated V1, or the nature of the problem that could have led the crew to a stop decision after V1. ;-)

Sadly, you're very likely to be correct! :roll:

What was the exact speed the ac was doing when he decided to stop?
