A Cityjet Canadair CRJ-900 on behalf of SAS, registration EI-GED performing flight
SK-696 from Vienna (Austria) to Copenhagen (Denmark), was accelerating for takeoff from Vienna's runway 29 when the crew rejected takeoff at high speed (above 82 knots over ground). The aircraft slowed safely and stopped on the runway. The aircraft was towed off the runway about 50 minutes after the rejected takeoff.
A passenger reported the crew indicated the aircraft was pulling to the right and initially thought it might have been a burst tyre, later suspected a jammed brake.
The aircraft is still on the ground in Vienna about 24 hours after the rejected takeoff.
