Contexto
There are two significant fallacies in the takeoff criteria. One, the aircraft accelerate-stop performance upon which the decision speed and runway length computations are based is determined during the aircraft type certification tests on a clean dry runway. The stopping performance is determined without the use of reverse thrust and is thus considered by the FAA and the airframe manufacturers to be conservative on a clean dry runway.
