Narrative:
Departing paris, we experienced an aborted takeoff due to a loss of 1 generator during takeoff roll. Aircraft achieved a speed of 162 mph before stopping. We bussed the passenger back to the terminal because 4 tires were blown and we had to wait for the generator to be fixed. We departed again, but approximately 2.3 hours after takeoff, we lost power in 1 generator again and had to divert to london.
