A KLM Boeing 777-200, registration PH-BQE performing flight
KL-681 from Amsterdam (Netherlands) to Vancouver,BC (Canada), was accelerating for takeoff from runway 36L when the crew rejected takeoff at low speed (about 50 knots over ground) and vacated the runway advising ATC "they were out of control". The aircraft stopped on the parallel taxiway, the crew worked the related checklists and subsequently decided to return to the apron.
After about 30-45 minutes at the apron the aircraft was able to depart again and reached Vancouver with a delay of about 75 minutes.
On Nov 17th 2022 the Dutch Safety Board (DSB) reported the occurrence was rated a serious incident and is being investigated preliminarily stating: "During takeoff, the Engine Indicating and Crew Alerting System (EICAS) generated a warning in the cockpit regarding the bleed air system, after which the pilots rejected the takeoff."
