Flight Crew Returned To Gate; Flight Crew Rejected Takeoff
Procedure
[We] aborted takeoff at approximately 80 KTS due to ECAM for aft cargo door open indication. [We] returned to the gate. Maintenance found the door handle out of the stowed position. No maintenance action required. Topped off fuel and departed uneventfully.
An AFT CARGO DOOR OPEN ECAM alerted during takeoff; so the takeoff was rejected. At the gate the door handle was found out of place; closed properly; fuel topped off and the flight departed uneventfully.
