With only the usual, straight forward symptoms of a single tire failure and no other indications of a problem (eg airframe vibration), would you choose to dump 100 tons of fuel, or land overweight?

The aircraft always gets towed to a remote gate in Frankfurt. They don't leave a 747 parked at the terminal all day - anywhere in the world!
