Tire Failure during or after Takeoff
If the crew suspects a tire failure during takeoff, the Air Traffic Service facility
serving the departing airport should be advised of the potential for tire pieces
remaining on the runway. The crew should consider continuing to the destination
unless there is an indication that other damage has occurred (non-normal engine
indications, engine vibrations, hydraulic system failures or leaks, etc.).
Continuing to the destination will allow the airplane weight to be reduced
normally, and provide the crew an opportunity to plan and coordinate their arrival
and landing when the workload is low.
