No comments on the reliability of the affected aircraft...
However, the takeoff must have been aborted right after setting takeoff thrust as the aircraft was standing only a couple of meters past the lineup position on RWY18 as we taxied in on that evening. Rescue services were all around. Today I saw the 742 parked at a remote stand in the southern part of the airport.
I am curious how long it will stay in FRA and if it will be repaired or rather written off. We will see...
