A PIA Pakistan International Airlines Airbus A320-200, registration AP-BMV performing flight PK-326 from Quetta to Islamabad (Pakistan), was accelerating for takeoff from Quetta's runway 31L when the crew rejected takeoff at high speed (about 110 knots over ground) due to a windshear warning. The aircraft slowed safely and returned to the apron with overheating brakes.

Pakistan's CAA reported: "Pilot aborted the take-off after warning indication in the cockpit in response to shearing winds and plane's overheating brakes."

The aircraft is still on the ground in Quetta about 10 hours after the rejected takeoff.
