Rejected take off test. Wow, I just couldn't believe the lack of coordination and planning. It looked like a total gong show from the vid.

I wonder if they were able to also do the emergency escape slide test immediately following this one LOL.

I'm surprised the firefighters got that close. They had to know those tires were going to blow. Isn't that why they have water cannons on airport fire trucks?
