I read the FSF report, hetfield, and I must say I did not find it a compelling argument to have TPMS installed.

It might be a useful thing to have to break the error chain, but the thing that concerned me was that the crew asked for a top up before departure. Perceived time pressure intervened. The N bottles were an inconvenient distance away, the pax were late. There were CRM issues, there were training issues....

In particular, consider not retracting the gear if tyres/etc are suspect.

I'm wondering, if my tyres overheated, blew, and caught fire, if my brake temp indications would give me a hint?
