Incident Overview
On March 28, 2014, a Bombardier Challenger CL-300 aircraft was involved in an incident at Moscow Vnukovo Airport (UUWW). During the takeoff roll at approximately 60 knots, the crew received a "TAKE OFF CONFIGURATION" CAS (Crew Alerting System) message and consequently aborted the takeoff.
Post-Abort Actions
After taxiing clear of the runway, the flight crew observed a STAB TRIM FAULT indication on the CAS. They performed a power cycle of the aircraft's electrical system, after which the fault indication disappeared and did not reappear. The crew then proceeded with a second takeoff, and the flight was completed without further issues.
Probable Cause
According to the investigation report, the probable cause of the STAB TRIM FAULT indication was a false signal in the aircraft's computer.
Safety Actions
The operator briefed its flight crews on the circumstances of the incident. Additionally, the event was discussed during the annual aviation personnel safety training. No safety recommendations were issued by the investigating commission.
