The Maintenance taxi run ended up being the FOs first flight off of OE…Mx requested a 100KIAS taxi speed. Light airplane- no pax and little gas in the takeoff configuration…Not much time/effort for the plane to reach fly away speed from a 100KIAS target in that scenario. What’s the best way to recover from an accidental rotation? It seems DEC decided it was safer to take flying than to try to land on the runway they just rotated from without being in the landing configuration and not having landing distance calculated.

Low experience DEC got setup for failure for sure… Brand new FO off OE (green on green scheduling?), MX request for 100KIAS taxi, that the company doesn’t have a set procedure for (for a shimmy that usually happens at 40-70KIAS on landing rollout), Long airport standby sit for reserve… Luckily they had enough gas for one lap in the pattern otherwise they’d be dead and probably would have taken out some folks in Essington with them.
