July 11, 1991 Jeddah Saudi Arabia a DC-8 was lost killing everybody on the jet. For me this accident crystallized the importance of proper tire inflation. If you haven’t read the accident analysis it is worth your time as it makes absolutely clear the terrible hazards of improper tire servicing/conditions.
