on avherald it is stated that they had one MLG tyre blown and they shut down the #1 engine. The info of the one tyre came apparently from the f18.
I am purely wondering, not judging, why did they continue for so long on one engine?
This is a sticky situation. Continue with only one engine or land at high Gross Weight with (at least) one tyre damaged. I think given the info I probably would have landed “at the nearest suitable airport”. In any case, they landed safely so kudos to the crew.
