Another version (sorry guys but I am really having fun with this thread) :lol:

 

- Hey, captain Sully, you REALLY have problems with them birds, don't you ?

 

- Well you are not going to believe this, but this time it was a DOG !

You see, I was applying the new company energy-saving policy and taking off single engine when this really large dog ran across the runway. Probably chasing a cat...Anyway....

Andrea, of course we are talking about gradual applying of power to keep the currect thrust Vmcg always just a bit less than current speed.

 

However the 737 is not exactly suited for this either way. If you really need to go and try this, get a maddog instead.

 

Trimotors, then, are a whole different breed. Quite a bit of those do have provisions for one-engine-out flights, including procedures for single engine climbouts.

As it is not legally admitted, I assume noone of the designer of a twin engine plane designed the plane taking in count to take off with a single engine ;) And I think that only a flight test from boeing or other constructors or air safety institutions could test this. But why to do this if in any case, below V1 (this including from engine start to taxi, to take off roll from 0 to V1) you MUST abort taker off.

It could be always more possible when the engine is near to the center of the fuselage, this is valid for all the airplanes like md80 crjs and so on. However, also in this case I really doubt that anyone designed the maddog to take off with an engine not operational from 0kts.

After V1 Taking off from Hobart, i lost Left engine on takeoff with the NGX, still Took off, made an approach, went around (too fast!) and landed again.

FSX speaking, I just tried to take off with an empty -600 and the take off with a single engine (shut down during taxi) and it was quite simple and it lifted at the end of the runway. it was then possible to manouver, and landing again with no problem.

That FSX is not accurate we all know, how far it will be from the real in that absolutely non normal and not "possible" situation, it is something we don't know.
