Using a wet V1 on a wet runway, compared to a dry V1 on a dry runway, in the event of an engine failure the safety margin with a continued take-off will:

Understand the Problem

The question is asking about the safety margin during take-off in the context of different runway conditions (wet vs. dry) and the corresponding V1 speeds. It's looking for an understanding of how these factors influence safety in case of an engine failure during take-off.

Answer

Decrease.

The final answer is decrease.

Answer for screen readers

The final answer is decrease.

More Information

When the runway is wet, the reduced friction leads to a lower V1 speed, which in turn decreases the safety margin for continued take-off if there's an engine failure. This is due to the need for more runway distance to stop.

Tips

A common mistake is assuming that a wet runway would not affect take-off speeds significantly, but it actually reduces braking efficiency, prompting adjustments in speed calculations.
