Narrative:
The aircraft had a covering of frost and was de-iced/anti-iced using a heated mixture of Type II+ de‑icing fluid and water. The commander commenced the takeoff run and at the calculated rotation speed pulled the control column aft. The aircraft did not appear to rotate in response to the control input and he abandoned the takeoff. The aircraft was brought to a stop on the runway.

The probable cause of the incident was the incorrect V1/VR speed selected. Had the correct V1 /VR speed been selected then the effects of any contamination of the horizontal stabiliser and elevator undersurfaces with thickened fluid would probably have been negated by the increased airflow and fluid run-off. Had the contamination been untreated frost, it is possible that the aircraft may not have rotated normally, even at the higher rotation speed.
Contamination must have been present because the aircraft would not rotate at the ‘normal’ rotation speed for its configuration and load but it was not possible to determine whether the contaminant was ice or thickened fluid. However, the de-icing/anti-icing fluid streak marks on the lower surface of the horizontal tailplane surfaces suggested that little or no fluid had been applied to the leading edge of the horizontal tailplane lower surfaces. This may have occurred because the fluid was
sprayed from the trailing edge towards the leading edge instead of the recommended method of spraying from the leading edge towards the trailing edge.
