TC,
Great answer TC. As a B767 Captain we practice V1 cuts (loss of engine thrust at rotation) routinely. We have found engine failures in the weather a few seconds after rotation to be a challenge that we also extensively train for. Internationally we also have driftdown procedures on the NAT (North American Track System) tracks back and forth to Europe. Being out of VHF radio coverage and having only satcom including CPDLC (Controller Pilot Data Link Communication) and HF add to the tasks, but the old adage we learned very early in flight school Aviate, Navigate and Communicate still are foremost in our minds.
Semper Fi,
Buffalo
