AIR FRANCE 687 (Boeing 777) departed Atlanta this evening but had a rejected takeoff because of an open door? They later would ask WASHINGTON CENTER for a shortcut because connecting pax were gonna be late. 😂 The question is, did the door open during the TO roll or did they not… pic.twitter.com/oe13VrxPw0
