At the beginning of a day full of emergencies and good movements there was a VS 747 abort a take off on runway 08R(It was one of the first to go after the change around). It then taxied to a holding point not far from the end of 26L were it got inspected by the fire crew’s. They then left and the plane taxied back over towards the old control tower and is now parked next to that.
What i would like to know is if anyone has any info on why it aborted?
Also on the note of aborting. Why also a Transaero 767 aborted taxied to a holding point and what looked like search on board the aircraft?
Any help i would be thankful of:D:D:D

As far as I am aware, the Virgin 747 returned due to a technical problem, I do not know what the cause of it was though – sorry.
