Incident: American B738 at Charlotte on May 19th 2022, temporary runway excursion on rejected takeoff

I would caution that Avherald tends to use a somewhat different definition of a rejected takeoff than the generally-accepted one.

Presumably it will become clear in due course whether an RTO was a factor in the runway excursion or simply a logical consequence thereof.

We need a chicken/egg expert ...
