EZY RTO at AMS

Anyone know anything about an EZY flight from AMS to STN recently which had an RTO due to a sticky/binding brake? A friend of a friend was on this flight and suffered a 12 hr plus delay. Anyone know what actually happened?

5150,

Yes you're probably right. Just wanted to make sure of the circumstances as I've flown the airbus for 7+ years and never heard of binding brakes on take off. Yes we have had some brake unit failures, but these are revealed on turnaround inspections.
