Story is: pneumatic valve in reverser system split, spewing very hot air on fire detection system
; system worked as designed and alarmed.
RTO followed, hot brakes, fuse plugs blown, tyres deflated.
Mandatory change of brakes, rims, tyres, and axles.
Once suitable moving equipment found, all work rapidly carried out and aircraft returned to service.
Take a bow, John. Good work.
