Cleared into position and hold in ATL years ago, a Delta 737 aborted their takeoff roll real quickly when they said they got a windshear warning.
That was follwed by ATL tower reporting a windshear on final for 26R. We held on the runway and watched to show begin as 4 aircraft on final made go-arounds. Some took it to near the Ford plant before they went around, my guess is to see how bad it was??
Finally ATL tower said the warning was gone and the next guy was a World MD-11. You could tell he was working hard by the way the plane was pitching up and down to remain on the glideslope. In the end he made it, but I didn't think it was possible to bounce an MD-11 on the runway, but he did.
