CNN Breaking: Edwards plane abort Takeoff

Pray for our two heroes to be safe!

1. This isn't that uncommon

and no cause for concern unless there are suspicious reasons for it. I've had it happen to me three times, and I don't even fly that frequently.

2. Just a faulty backup generator

The plane has three, apparently, but the takeoff was aborted safely

3. everything is ok now

the pilots on board say a light indicated one of the plane's three generators had failed just before take-off, and they made the decision to abort. the plane has moved back to the terminal at the airpirt in downtown cleveland, and maintenace crews are looking at the back right engine of the plane.
