Which of the following statements about V1 is incorrect?

V1 is a critical airspeed in the context of takeoff performance for multi-engine aircraft, representing the maximum speed at which a decision can be made to abort the takeoff. It's important to understand its relationship with other speeds such as VMCG (minimum control speed on the ground), VMCA (minimum control speed in the air), and VR (rotation speed).

The statement that V1 is less than VMCG is not true because VMCG is the minimum speed at which the pilot can maintain control of the aircraft during the takeoff roll with an engine failure. By regulation and design, V1 must be greater than or equal to VMCG to ensure that the pilot has adequate control of the aircraft if an engine fails during the takeoff roll.

Similarly, V1 must also be greater than VMCA, which is the minimum control speed in the air. If V1 were less than VMCA, the aircraft would not have sufficient control authority to maintain flight with an engine inoperative after takeoff.

Regarding the relationship with VR, V1 is always calculated to be less than VR. VR is the speed at which the pilot begins to rotate the aircraft for takeoff, and since the decision to continue or abort the take
