When the police showed up they said they could overhear the A380 screaming at the building in a scene reminiscent of Horton hears domestic violence and fails to call 911 with Horton played by a nearby 747 and the building is the neighbors wife:

How many think that a controller yelling: "Cancel Takeoff Clearance" means that you must abort the takeoff?

If there's a runway incursion, or I've lined up on a runway with a bulldozer at mid field, or pilot just made a pirep of 40 knots loss of airspeed off the parallel runway, there's probably some very good reason for Tower to cancel the clearance.
From the right seat ... it is the Captain's jet obviously.

Below v1 ... I'll stick my neck out and say, ABORT!

What's the book answer?

Still have a place off of 30A. Been in Walton County since the beach was just sand dunes and seaoats. You're right, 30a is a long way from the Redneck Riviera.

I was surprised at this one myself. A "Cancel Takeoff Clearance" statement from ATC simply means that they've lost separation per their requirements. It is NOT a command to abort the takeoff. At a recent meeting with an ATC supervisory team, they said aborting the takeoff is up to the crew, we just have to advise them when separation has been lost and cancel their clearance. I was appalled, but that's what they said.

Controllers only cancel a takeoff clearance when there is an immediate threat to safety.

Again, I was stunned when I heard this. I'll bet that most pilots were like me and thought it meant they were saying you must abort the takeoff. But when I thought more about what they said, they're right. ATC could never take on the liability of telling a crew to abort their takeoff.
