Okay:

1) I think that pilots are slowly evolving to become braindead. It's always procedure-procedure-procedure. Gone are the days before all that, when pilots used good judgement...

2) To all the people using the concorde as an example for T/O after V1;
The average takeoff speed of the Concorde is about 220 knots. Considering that the longest runway length at LFPG is about 13,000 feet long, it is a safe assumption that the Concorde would have used the majority, if not almost all of that runway to take off (especially since there was a tailwind at the time of departure).

1 of their engines was completely shut down, and they would have had minimal braking and reverse thrust. If they had aborted the take-off, they would have crashed several major roads, populated areas, and streams.

Either way, there's nothing the crew could have done to prevent the accident. So please stop using this as a valid example.
