hello herkys... has anyone knows during training touch and go cant be aborted? any references pls

You will have to be more specific. Are you asking "is it possible"? Or are you asking "is it allowed?

Possible? Sure! This a "gray area" So many factors apply to the problem that it is impossible to say yes or no. We hope that the pilot in command is qualified to make a judgment about aborting a touch and go, and has thought about "what if?"

Allowed? Depends upon whose airplane you're flying and their rules. If I remember correctly, one USAF command specified a minimum of 5,000 feet runway available for a 50% flap touch-and-go landing. Does having the minimum required guarantee a safe operation? No.

Could you apply the logic of: "If the minimum wasn't good enough; it wouldn't be the minimum" ? Yes, but under some conditions, that could get you killed...
