BA 747 hi-speed aborted Take Off LAX
BA282 22 APR LAX-LHR aborted approximately 30 seconds into the take off roll apparently due to "wheel problems"
Four hours later, a mechanic who happened to be onboard as a pax, seems to have rectified the problem and the 747 took off again.
Anyone having details??

It had a main gear steering unlocked message. The offending steering actuator was locked out. The local BA engineers were having problems identifying which actuator was at fault and were helped by a pax who works the aircraft for BA at T5 LHR.

On the subject of RTOs and assuming that the reason for the abort turns out to be spurious is there a speed above which the a/c has to be taken in for maintenance versus being allowed to immediately head out for another take-off?

brake cooling
Brake cooling times must be observed. This time varies with A/C weight & speed at time of reject.
