Yes same C/P with the rejected takoff, he knew this as he operated the airplane into BAH and did not report it.
Next day we had heavyweight takeoff temp around 40 temp engine would not reach max power required, ended up being a high speed reject almots 160 kts lucky no blown tires.
How do i know this?
Lets just say I had a good seat and birds eye view.
Then a rejected takeoff requires a safety report to the GCAA within 72 hours.
They contacted the Captain and said you need to do this now.
Captain said to the C/P which safety report do you want me to submit. the one where I rejected the takeoff at high speed prior to V1, or the one where you knew that there was a problem with this A300 engine when you flew it into BAH and told everyone about it except us, but never reported in the maint log book.
I was a operating crew on this flight and was really angry how he risked every ones lives just for his job.
Midex safety department fully aware of these things, still have the emails.
Also same C/P that tried to convince is that it was ok to take off from FUJ with a 28 knot taill wind, saying customer is pushing this flight.
We could not take off in the other direction due to obstacle clearance, mountains and weight restrictions.
And some still want to work there?
