Again you are using the mentality that it's safer to take it to the sky then to deal with it on the ground, that's what caused this accident. All he had to do was abort but instead he added flaps so they could get out of there and not miss the flow window. If you're on the takeoff roll and you notice that flaps aren't set, doesn't matter if they're 0 or 8, it's an automatic abort. However, if the CA had enough reflex to continue the roll and add flaps then he should have known to disregard flaps misconfig warning and continued. Again the take off phase is not a "set it and forget it" phase of flight, there are different segments which you need to pay attention to the airplane and the roll.
Amazing, no real T/O brief on the CVR, if they did it earlier how about at least a refresh of the high points as there turning onto the active....But they got nothing. Also the brief is 99.9% ANYTHING beore 80 abort 80-v1 RED Stuff.....but still no abort when red stuff came out. Also no abort call. I saw this time and time again in the box, they brief then don't do what they brief....Sucks for this capable crew, but again shows the importance of the brief and sterile......Every departure every day the rest of your career!!!
