Discontinued takeoff at Riyadh on 6 April ?
While on approach to OERK on evening of 6 April,we had a runway switch to 33L due to an acft doing a rejected take off on 33R.
Then after 15 minutes we were given an approach to 33R - we noticed an acft getting some TLC from Fire service on Taxiway G1 (just after the start of the runway 33R). Next day I saw a forlorn CX A330 on east remote - it was still there today 8th. Rolls Royce strikes again ?? |
still there
A330 still at RUH - but moved from East remote to West remote parking.
Any ideas about the reason ? Left engine cactus ?? |
Engine Stall on takeoff.

Must have been before V1 damn it.
|
Unless there is a war going on or a Nuke about to pop off then yes it is most preferable to have a failure before V1. :rolleyes:
Take an Airbus into the air with 1 Eng and go knows what else wrong!!!! Nope. I do realize you were jesting though about Riyadh!! |
I always adjust V1 down about 30 or 50kts in OERK and OEJN - or any other "OE" airport. I do that for safety.
Nearest siutable... OMDB, followed by anything east of VTBS :ok: |
SQWAK7700
If that really is the case, and not just "bar talk", then there are no polite words to describe how stupid that is!:ugh::ugh: |
Iceman Iceman Iceman........... V1 has been known to occur as a negative number in some cases at OERK. During pushback!
