Hi guys,
On friday 4th of june a Ryanair 737-800 aborted the take-off. The nosewheel was already in the air ( the mainweels still on the runway) when the pilots decided to abort. This resulted in a hot-brake situation. All passengers and crew where safely evacuated, no one was injured. The flight was continued on another plane.
A emergency-stop after VR? I am curious as to what kind of failure they encountered?
It must have been a very lightly loaded plane, their destination was Faro (LPFR) in Portugal, about 3 hours of flighttime. If they had been heavier and/or the runway was shorter, it might not be possible to abort (after V1).

RyanAir plane aborts takeoff with brake problems
Friday 04 June 2010
A RyanAir plane aborted its take off from Eindhoven airport at the last second on Friday because of problems with its brakes, the Telegraaf reports.
A journalist on board the flight used the Twitter messaging service to report that the front wheel was already off the ground when the flight was aborted, causing a slight panic among passengers.
The plane, carrying 158 people, was heading to Faro. No one was hurt and the waiting emergency services were not required to step in, the Telegraaf said.
