AA airline its the worse airline with most accidents..i will never fly in that airline FUCK that!!!

The likely reason why the takeoff fails is either because it is the same situation as here (hydraulic pressure loss= slat retraction), or because you aren't flying the aircraft the exact way it needs to be to fly with the loss of an engine. This is something that takes training to be able to handle. However, the crashing into buildings, fences, etc, in an attempt to reject past V1 is very much like what would happen in real life.

I have done many simulations in Flight Simulator X. It is not 100% real, but every time I try a take off it fails. When I stopped take off I ran in to fences, or airport sheet metal buildings.

No, they did what they were supposed to. When an aircraft reaches V1, the aircraft is committed to takeoff as trying to stop will merely result in a runway overrun. Had there been no loss in hydraulic pressure and the slats remained open, there would have been no crash. So, under typical emergency conditions (ie. engine failure, not complete engine ripped off) it is FAR safer for the crew to continue the takeoff and return for a controlled landing.

The crew was unaware that the entire engine and pylon broke off as they lifted off. The wings and engines were not visible from the cockpit. Instruments told them they had lost power from engine #1 on the left wing. Exactly what they heard and felt as the plane lifted off is unknown, except for the word "Damn", from the CVR. They followed an emergency procedure that involved reducing speed, while unknown to them hydraulic fluid leaked from the left wing, slats retracted, left wing stalled...roll |
