Air France A388 at Tokyo on Mar 2nd 2014, rejected takeoff twice

An Air France Airbus A380-800, registration F-HPJF performing flight AF-275 from Tokyo Narita (Japan) to Paris Charles de Gaulle (France) with 537 people on board, was accelerating for takeoff from runway 34L when the crew rejected takeoff due to problems with the nose wheel steering. The aircraft slowed safely and returned to the apron.

Following repairs the aircraft attempted departure again about 55 minutes later, but again needed to reject takeoff due to the nose wheel steering problem.

The flight was cancelled.
