Getting V speeds

in Operational questions

Hi there,

in the Majestic manual it says:
For wet runway reduce V1 by 8kts -0.1kts for each kt headwind, or 8 kts + 0.3kts for each kt tailwind.

Does that mean that I have to reduce the speeds just when the runway is wet?
Does that mean that I reduce the Vr and V2 also when reducing V1?

Thanks a lot

    Hi,

    As the manual says: You have to reduce V1. There is nothing said about Vr/V2. It would also be not logical, that the speed, when the plane rotates and when it flies stable would change by a wet runway. Of course the speed, where you latest can abort the takeoff, will change with a wet runway due to limited braking capabilities.
