The danger of high speed aborts with burst tyres.

http://libraryonline.erau.edu/online...s/AAR72-12.pdf

The danger of a high speed abort following tyre burst. In this case, the crew did not initially recognise several tyres had blown. When the heavy vibration and slowing of acceleration due to drag during the latter part of the take off run became alarming, the decision to abort was made. The resulting event proved fatal.An old accident; but nevertheless, tyre bursts are not unknown today. There are lessons to be learned by today's pilots. .
