Encore takeoff emergency briefing

A
CA: In the event of a rejected takeoff before V1, I will call reject and:
Select Disc and apply max braking
Stop the aircraft
Once stopped I will:
Set the emerg brake
Command the checklist 
Advise the flight attendants and passengers. 
FO: I will advise ATC, call 60 knots, standby to initiate the checklist as commanded
PF: In the event of an engine failure or fire after V1, I will continue the takeoff, rotate normally at Vr. 
PNF: I will call positive rate
PF: I will call gear up
Climb at V2 to flap retraction altitude
Call for the QRC at a safe altitude 
Retract the flaps on schedule 
Climb at Vclimb to 1500 feet
Call for the QRH reference items

A

On Ground:
Icing conditions exist when the SAT on the ground and for takeoff is 10°C or below, or the SAT in flight is 5°C or below and visible moisture in any form is present (such as clouds, fog with visibility of one mile or less, rain, snow, sleet or ice crystals). Ice accretion on aerodynamic surfaces is not considered to exist at temperatures of -40°C or below

Icing conditions also exist when the SAT on the ground and for takeoff is 10°C or below when operating on ramps, taxiways or runways where surface snow, ice, standing water or slush may be ingested by the engines or freeze on the engines, nacelles, or engine sensor probes

Note: Icing conditions are considered to exist at takeoff where visible moisture (cloud ceiling) is present at 1,000’ AGL or below at a SAT of 5°C or less
