A Martinair McDonnell Douglas MD-11 freighter, registration PH-MCR performing flight MP-1157 from Amsterdam (Netherlands) to Miami,FL (USA), was accelerating for a full length takeoff from Amsterdam's runway 18L when the crew rejected takeoff reporting a "minor reason" and vacated the runway via taxiway E2 (about 1200 meters/3900 feet down the runway).

Back on ground frequency the crew reported they had rejected takeoff because of momentary "engine vib fail" (PW4462) that was probably caused by a bump on the intersection with runway 27 and queried, how long it would take until they could take off from a different runway, e.g. runway 24. Upon feedback by ground it would take about one hour the crew decided to try another takeoff from runway 18L and departed about 20 minutes after rejecting the first takeoff run and reached Miami about 15 minutes behind schedule.
