I just watched the Wizz LBA-OTP depart on FR24. I know FR24 has some anomalies but I thought this was interesting. I watched the aircraft speed up as it rolled down the runway. At the point where it was approaching its takeoff speed it appeared to rapidly lose speed from approximately 145 knots down to about 123 knots. It happened quick enough to make me think the arcraft had aborted takeoff. Shortly after the aircraft then gained speed and started to climb away. Is this normal as I've never seen that before?

i think this assume the gs shown on FR24 is completely accurate and glitch free? is it possible there was in reality no slowing down during the take off roll?

Thanks, I wasn't assuming but wondered if this was a thing on rotation sometimes. Of course, yes it could have been an FR24 glitch.

survived a redundancy scenario where I work for the 3rd time. Now it looks likely I will get to cover work for 2 other teams.. Pretty please for a payrise? That would be a no and so stay on the min wage.
Live in Market Bosworth and take each day as it comes......
Well it looks like I'm off to Australia and New Zealand next year! Booked with BA from Manchester via Heathrow with a stop in Singapore and returning with Air New Zealand and BA via LAX to Heathrow. Will circumnavigate the globe and be my first trans-Pacific flight. First long haul flight with BA as well and of course Air NZ.
15 years at the same company was reached the weekend before last. Not sure how they will mark the occasion apart from the compulsory payirse to minimum wage (1st rise for 2 years; i was 15% above it back then!)
