Thank you, sir, for actually answering my question.

(LAX, VFR)

"we abort for any abnormalities below 80kts, between 80 and V1, we abort for an engine fire, failure, loss of directional control or a red light. After V1 its an inflight emergency, we continue the take off to a pattern altitude of _____ and ask for a visual back to LAX. Flap___ take off, dry long runway, no MELs that affect performance. RIVER1 dept, LNAV engaged to 5000ft....Any questions, suggestions."

if taking off out of Santa Monica, you obviously don't want to go back in there with a problem, brief where you'd want to go in the event of an emergency, LAX, VNY or wherever. Same applies to every other airport with a 5000ft runway
