Bursting a tyre in style


Another day training but a wee surprise halfway through.....

The tyre definitely made an impression on the airstrip at Dimbulah

No puncture kit is going to fix this one

MEP in need of some TLC

Simon and Tim were able to pull the aircraft off the airstrip and then organise for an engineer to come and replace the tyre



Help has arrived.  Thankful for MAF engineers and for their invaluable skills to keep the aircraft in the air.  Thankfully this 208 was due for a inspection including tyre changes so good timing.

No time to waste as there is always paperwork to be completed
