Last January I was in Laos and was talking to a German couple that had flown to Southeast Asia on Air France. Maybe it was Paris to Bangkok. Not sure. Anyway, they told an interesting story. They claimed that on their departure the crew of their 747 aborted their takeoff. Not once.........TWICE. And then they taxied back for a THIRD try which was successful. According to them many of the passengers were in tears and the lead flight attendant became combative when a number of them got out of their seats and demanded to be let off as they were taxiing back for the third attempt. They were told to sit down and shut up.

Could such a thing be true?

My apologies. I don't speak French.
