Garuda Indonesia Flight 865 was a scheduled international flight from Fukuoka, Japan, to Jakarta, Indonesia that crashed at takeoff on 13 June 1996.
The crew of the McDonnell Douglas DC-10-30, attempted to abort take-off after the failure of the number 3 engine. The abort occurred at speeds nearing V2, and after rotation of the nose. Following the abort, attempts were made to stop the aircraft on the runway by use of brakes, ground spoilers and thrust reversers, but the crew was unable to stop the aircraft within the boundaries of the runway, which exited the airport property.
The failure of the engine was attributed to a failed turbine blade that had been in use for 6182 cycles. General Electric, the manufacturer of the engine, had advised customers to discard turbine blades after 6000 cycles.
