Comments by "Tony L" (@tlangdon12) on "Airbus A320 takes off the WRONG way! Air Arabia flight 111" video.
Older captains are much further away from their own experience of learning to fly, so might not realise the full impact of a mistake that the FO might think is career-limiting. However, allowing the FO to complete the flight would be an example of encouraging the FO (akin to getting straight back on the horse that has just throw you). A supportive debreif, and electing to return as passengers would have been the best route, but the returning flight was made safely. Petter didn't mention who flew the return flight, but I've assuming it was the Captain as he did the walkaround.

I think Petter is of the same opinion - he mentioned that he thought the FO was pre-occupied with juggling the throttles to execute the rolling take off correctly, so would have been focused on the near-distance view, not the view to the end of runway and beyond.

@sandeepmehta5311 TCAS would provide a second safety net, but the first safety net should have been a prompt call to ATC.

@marhawkman303 Agreed - the Captain seems to have failed to model the correct behaviours for CRM. They should have called STOP and watched the FO to check that they were stopping expeditiously. I suspect the Captain's actions were also prompted by being startled.
