About 3:40 minutes prior to the takeoff clearance tower had cleared an Expressjet Embraer ERJ-145 on behalf of United Airlines, registration N15980 performing flight UA-4088 from Cleveland,OH to Milwaukee,WI (USA), to land on Milwaukee's runway 25L.
A passenger, who had also consulted LiveATC tower recordings of Milwaukee Airport, reported they had lined up runway 19R at taxiway F and were accelerating for takeoff from runway 19R when at about crossing the runway threshold the brakes came on and the aircraft rejected takeoff at low speed. The passenger wrote: "The reason for the rejected takeoff became clear when an E145 that was ExpressJet flight ASQ-4088 landing on crossing runway 25L appeared suddenly out of a backdrop of a bright low rising sun and clouds maybe 100-200ft on very short final that then continued for a safe landing."
The Boeing 737 vacated the runway, returned to the holding point runway 19R at taxiway F and departed without further incident about 5 minutes after the rejected takeoff.
