That Caravelle incident is a complete "Red Herring. The Caravelle performed a high-speed rejected take off, then taxied for a second attempt.
Sadly it's true. About a year ago the accident was raised on another thread. An ex Swissair captain not only confirmed the Caravelle fog dispersal attempt but (I believe) produced evidence that Flt OPs actually condoned the scheme.
I'll see if I can find it.
