Narrative:

We got to the aircraft about 40 mins prior to the scheduled departure time due to delays with terminal security screening. The aircraft was a first flight of the aircraft that had not flown the previous day due to engine problems and it carried several current write-ups and needed a security sweep. Several maintenance issues occurred during the preflight on the flight deck and in the cabin. All customer service/cabin service requests had to be handled through the flight deck radio, as the gate phone was inoperative. At the time the weight and balance arrived, we were still sorting out MEL requirements and logbook write-ups and had not yet run the checklist. After the door was closed an additional maintenance problem occurred that was handled via flight crew placard. Maintenance said we had dispatcher approval, but, I wanted verification and handled that via ACARS on the taxi out. We pushed from the gate late. By the time we got to take off, we felt task saturated, but, comfortable. For the takeoff, the paperwork required ableeds off, flaps 1 degree confign. After the takeoff was initiated and power set, we saw the air conditioning panel was not set appropriately for a bleeds off takeoff and aborted the takeoff. We returned to the run-up block and complied with brake cooling and redispatch requirements. A subsequent bleeds off takeoff generated a compressor stall in the #2 engine as power was advanced. We returned to the gate, swapped aircraft and proceeded to destination. Sum: multiple tasking had overloaded the flight crew that a required confign was missed causing an aborted takeoff. Additional memory/reminder techniques should have been used to assist in remembering a non standard takeoff confign.

Title: A B732 CREW, DEPARTING FLL, EXPERIENCED A COMPRESSOR STALL IN #2 ENG, SPAWNING A REJECTED TKOF.

Narrative: WE GOT TO THE ACFT ABOUT 40 MINS PRIOR TO THE SCHEDULED DEP TIME DUE TO DELAYS WITH TERMINAL SECURITY SCREENING. THE ACFT WAS A FIRST FLT OF THE ACFT THAT HAD NOT FLOWN THE PREVIOUS DAY DUE TO ENG PROBS AND IT CARRIED SEVERAL CURRENT WRITE-UPS AND NEEDED A SECURITY SWEEP. SEVERAL MAINT ISSUES OCCURRED DURING THE PREFLT ON THE FLT DECK AND IN THE CABIN. ALL CUSTOMER SVC/CABIN SVC REQUESTS HAD TO BE HANDLED THROUGH THE FLT DECK RADIO, AS THE GATE PHONE WAS INOP. AT THE TIME THE WT AND BAL ARRIVED, WE WERE STILL SORTING OUT MEL REQUIREMENTS AND LOGBOOK WRITE-UPS AND HAD NOT YET RUN THE CHKLIST. AFTER THE DOOR WAS CLOSED AN ADDITIONAL MAINT PROB OCCURRED THAT WAS HANDLED VIA FLC PLACARD. MAINT SAID WE HAD DISPATCHER APPROVAL, BUT, I WANTED VERIFICATION AND HANDLED THAT VIA ACARS ON THE TAXI OUT. WE PUSHED FROM THE GATE LATE. BY THE TIME WE GOT TO TAKE OFF, WE FELT TASK SATURATED, BUT, COMFORTABLE. FOR THE TKOF, THE PAPERWORK REQUIRED ABLEEDS OFF, FLAPS 1 DEG CONFIGN. AFTER THE TKOF WAS INITIATED AND PWR SET, WE SAW THE AIR CONDITIONING PANEL WAS NOT SET APPROPRIATELY FOR A BLEEDS OFF TKOF AND ABORTED THE TKOF. WE RETURNED TO THE RUN-UP BLOCK AND COMPLIED WITH BRAKE COOLING AND REDISPATCH REQUIREMENTS. A SUBSEQUENT BLEEDS OFF TKOF GENERATED A COMPRESSOR STALL IN THE #2 ENG AS PWR WAS ADVANCED. WE RETURNED TO THE GATE, SWAPPED ACFT AND PROCEEDED TO DEST. SUM: MULTIPLE TASKING HAD OVERLOADED THE FLC THAT A REQUIRED CONFIGN WAS MISSED CAUSING AN ABORTED TKOF. ADDITIONAL MEMORY/REMINDER TECHNIQUES SHOULD HAVE BEEN USED TO ASSIST IN REMEMBERING A NON STANDARD TKOF CONFIGN.
