737-800 veers off runway after aborting take off

[Dave Noble]

one was injured, authorities say.

The pilot of the Air Berlin Boeing 737-800 braked to abort the takeoff from Dortmund airport because of a "technical irregularity", but the plane left the runway in wintry conditions, airline spokeswoman Diane Daedelow said.

It came to rest with its nose pointing down a slight, snow-covered slope.

Good one!

But doesn't ice only form on Airbus pitot tubes?
