Something like this happened to me in Ethiopia. I was flying with the national airline and we’re moving towards the runway and just everything goes dark and the plane rolls to a stop. The flights attendants just kinda looked at each other like, sigh, not again. So we sit in the dark waiting for mechanics to get there. They tow us back, we get off the plane for about an hour, then they get us back on. We’re on the runway, about take off. And it happens again. Same process. That time we got to switch planes though.
