This year, when about to take off for my honeymoon, our plane aborted take-off just before

it started (i.e. after it was sitting at the runway and revving up the engines).

Our problem was a faulty engine. On a 767, so only two engines, that was preparing to fly 10 hours across the Atlantic.

That was a bit of a parp as well!
