Deviation / Discrepancy - Procedural Published Material / Policy; Inflight Event / Encounter Loss Of Aircraft Control
Flight Crew Regained Aircraft Control; Flight Crew Rejected Takeoff
Human Factors; Weather; Airport
Entering the runway for takeoff lost directional control when TOGA selected. Immediately terminated the takeoff. Ran all appropriate checklists. Did not note anything wrong with aircraft. Decided to attempt second takeoff (fuel and brake temps fine). When turning onto runway the second time the wheels started skidding due to rubber build up and moisture. This time ensured wheels were aligned perfectly with centerline; moved forward a little further; ran power manually to 40% to ensure engines came up to speed symmetrically and flew uneventful takeoff. Make note of rubber reversion and other factors that may affect an intersection takeoff. Ensure proper alignment before running up the power.
Aircraft heading came left of centerline when takeoff power was initially applied. Control inputs were made to correct but heading did not respond as expected. Takeoff was immediately rejected at a low speed. Crew asked to taxi off departure runway at the next intersection. Aircraft systems and controls were checked and were operating normally. Checklists were completed and another takeoff was attempted since it appeared there was deicing fluid and rubber reversion in the takeoff area.
A300 flight crew reports momentary loss of control when thrust is increased for takeoff with the aircraft still turning to line up with rubber and deice fluid making the runway slippery.  The takeoff is rejected at low speed and the second attempt is successful.
