Airplanes, flight, and the related operations have always fascinated me. Recently I downloaded a flight tracker app and have been enjoying it like crazy. All this has made me curious about a few things.
How in the world are there not more Mid Air collisions? The amount of planes in the appears to be insane!
How do planes and pilots compensate for turbulence? Especially heavy turbulence.
At V1, is it absolute that you continue to the take off or is it possible to abort after passing V1?
I know @GJM is a pilot, but I hope we have even more on the forum who are in the know.
