Egypt B738 at Milan
on Nov 10th 2012, rejected take-off thrice.
An Egypt Air Boeing 737-800, registration SU-GCZ performing
flight MS-706 from Milan Malpensa (Italy) to Cairo (Egypt) with 83 passengers,
was accelerating for takeoff with the engines spooling up when the crew
rejected takeoff at low speed due to an engine anti ice failure indication. The
aircraft returned to the gate to have maintenance rectify the fault.
Following maintenance activities the aircraft attempted another departure, upon accelerating the engines for takeoff the crew received the same fault indication again and rejected takeoff at low speed again. The aircraft returned to the apron for maintenance action.
Following another attempt to repair the aircraft maintenance signed the aircraft off again and the crew attempted another departure, however the same fault occurred again and the takeoff was rejected at low speed a third time.
The third attempt to repair the aircraft finally succeeded, the aircraft departed on the fourth takeoff and reached Cairo with a delay of 5.5 hours.
