Finnair A340 began it’s takeoff roll on a taxi way and was ordered to
abort by ground ATC at Hong Kong Airport.
OH SNAP-
FO- Line up check list complete. Heading 120 we’re cleared for takeoff Cap.
Power set, 100kts 4 good motors boards clear. hmm strange, the center line is painted yellow, and the runway seems narrow, but anyways. silly Chinese, with their narrow runways and yellow solid center line.
TOWER- Finair ABORT TAKEOFF.
FO- Power idle, boards are out Cap. TR deployed.
Captain- hey FO do you still have that number to that truck driver school, what was it Truckmasters?
