Narrative:
Date: mar/sun/03. Location: ogg. Time: approximately XA30 hawaiian standard time. After fueling at east ramp, I contacted ground. Aircraft X: 'cessna X at east ramp taxi to intersection east for departure.' tower: 'cessna X cleared to taxi runway 2 intersection east.' I proceeded to intersection east. At this time an air carrier flight was proceeding to taxiway. When I reached intersection east, I contacted tower. Aircraft X: 'maui tower cessna X at intersection east ready to take off.' tower: 'cleared to take off runway 2.' aircraft X: 'clear to take off runway 2, cessna X.' then I proceeded to runway 2, at that time tower called us frantically calling 'aircraft X, aircraft X, aircraft X air carrier, cancel takeoff.' immediately after I heard it I turned around and left runway. As I look back to this incident, the tower did not specify which plane was cleared to take off, but the tower did not reply after I contacted that I was taking off at runway 2. I assumed it was me that was clear to take off. In order to avoid this type of incident, always make sure the clearance is followed by your call sign.

Narrative: DATE: MAR/SUN/03. LOCATION: OGG. TIME: APPROX XA30 HAWAIIAN STANDARD TIME. AFTER FUELING AT E RAMP, I CONTACTED GND. ACFT X: 'CESSNA X AT E RAMP TAXI TO INTXN E FOR DEP.' TWR: 'CESSNA X CLRED TO TAXI RWY 2 INTXN E.' I PROCEEDED TO INTXN E. AT THIS TIME AN ACR FLT WAS PROCEEDING TO TXWY. WHEN I REACHED INTXN E, I CONTACTED TWR. ACFT X: 'MAUI TWR CESSNA X AT INTXN E READY TO TAKE OFF.' TWR: 'CLRED TO TAKE OFF RWY 2.' ACFT X: 'CLR TO TAKE OFF RWY 2, CESSNA X.' THEN I PROCEEDED TO RWY 2, AT THAT TIME TWR CALLED US FRANTICALLY CALLING 'ACFT X, ACFT X, ACFT X ACR, CANCEL TKOF.' IMMEDIATELY AFTER I HEARD IT I TURNED AROUND AND LEFT RWY. AS I LOOK BACK TO THIS INCIDENT, THE TWR DID NOT SPECIFY WHICH PLANE WAS CLRED TO TAKE OFF, BUT THE TWR DID NOT REPLY AFTER I CONTACTED THAT I WAS TAKING OFF AT RWY 2.
