Wow...great factual report...reminds me of the story about the EVA Captain who left a can of his much loved smoked almonds on the throttle console of his steed, apparently forgot they were there, and as the throttles advanced to take off thrust, the can of nuts jammed one throttle and it was unable to be properly set...Rejected takeoff resulted...The headline should have read: "Captain gets his nuts caught in throttle, rejects take off!"
