Narrative

WHEN WE GOT TO THE ACFT MAINT PERSONNEL WERE COMPLETING A BORESCOPE OF THE L ENG. I WAS BRIEFED BY MAINT THAT THE RESULTS OF THE INSPECTION WERE NEGATIVE AND WE WERE ASKED TO RUN THE ENG AT IDLE FOR 2 MINS WHILE PARKED WITH A FULL PNEUMATIC LOAD. NO DISCREPANCIES WERE NOTED BY MAINT AND THE FLT WAS CLRED. I BRIEFED THE PURSER; WE LOADED THE ACFT AND WAITED FOR A NEW MAINT RELEASE. I BRIEFED THE COCKPIT CREW; ALL CHKLISTS WERE COMPLETED AND WE DEPARTED THE GATE FOR RWY 25R. WE BRIEFED A FULL LENGTH TKOF WITH REDUCED PWR SETTINGS. IT WAS MY TKOF. CLRNC FOR TKOF WAS RECEIVED AND THE ENGS WERE RUN UP WITH NO DISCREPANCIES NOTED. TKOF WAS NORMAL FOR MOST OF THE TKOF ROLL. AT A POINT IN THE TKOF PRIOR TO V1; THE ACFT EXPERIENCED 2 LOUD BANGS WITH SUBSEQUENT POPPING; COMBINED WITH A SLIGHT L YAW. MY INITIAL LOOK AT THE INSTS SHOWED AIRSPD OF ABOUT 140 KTS AND EGT IN THE RED. LOOKING AT THE AMOUNT OF RWY REMAINING AND CONVINCED THAT THE EVENT WAS ENG RELATED; I ELECTED TO ABORT THE TKOF. THE ACFT EXPERIENCED MINIMAL YAWING AND THE ACFT REMAINED ON THE CTRLINE. FO #1 INFORMED THE TWR AND ASKED FOR THE FIRE TRUCKS. THE ACFT SLOWED QUICKLY WITH THE RTO (REJECTED TKOF BRAKING) SYS REQUIRING ME TO RELEASE RTO IN ORDER TO TAXI TO THE END OF THE RWY. PRIOR TO EXITING THE RWY; I TOLD FO #2 TO INFORM THE FLT ATTENDANTS TO REMAIN IN THEIR SEATS OVER THE PA. WE TAXIED ONTO THE PARALLEL TXWY WHERE WE SLOWED TO MINIMUM TAXI SPD AWAITING THE FIRE TRUCKS. STOPPING THE ACFT; THE NOSEGEAR WAS CHOCKED. I GAVE A PA ANNOUNCEMENT TO THE PAX INFORMING THEM OF THE SIT AND BRIEFED THE PURSER IN THE COCKPIT. THE HOT BRAKE IRREGULAR PROC WAS COMPLETED. WHILE FO #1 TALKED TO TWR AND FO #2 COMMUNICATED WITH BRUSSELS OPS; LHRMM; AND DISPATCH ON ACARS; I CONTINUED TO UPDATE THE PAX AND PURSER. ACR PERSONNEL ARRIVED AT THE ACFT AND COM WAS ESTABLISHED. THE HOT BRAKES IRREGULAR PROC REQUIREMENTS WERE COMPLETED.
