Lose an engine after V1 with 7000 ft of runway remaining what do you do?

Lose an engine after V1 with 7000 ft of runway remaining what do you do?

• A. Abort and reject the takeoff.
• B. Continue the takeoff to the runway end.
• C. After V1 you are committed to the takeoff, therefore the takeoff must be continued.
• D. Fly a standard missed approach procedure.

Answer: (C)

After V1 you are committed to the takeoff. If an engine fails at this point, the safe course is to continue the takeoff and handle the engine-out situation in the climb. Stopping on the remaining runway with an inoperative engine would require more distance than is typically available, and the aircraft’s performance with one engine out is designed for continuation rather than a rejected takeoff. Focus on maintaining control, accelerate to the appropriate speed for a single-engine climb, and execute the engine-out procedures as you transition to a positive climb. The 7000 ft of runway remaining supports continuing; a missed approach isn’t the immediate action at engine failure during the takeoff roll, since you’re already past the decision point and aiming to climb out with one engine.
