We spend a lot of time practicing for engine emergencies on takeoff, but we use terms like refusal speed, decision speed, max abort speed, single engine takeoff speed, etc...but never "V" speeds.
Huh, interesting. It all means the same thing in the end. Didn't know you all didn't refer to V speeds in the fighter world. Army FW tries to operate like the civilian world since all we fly is civilian airplanes that have been "Armyized." Thanks for the insight.
