Screaching Tyres
I am a poor ATPL student and the closest I get to big fast jets is either holiday or watching them at the local airport.
I wonder how much wear and tear the tyres of say a 737 get every time it lands.
My question is - if the tyre was to accelerate with the airflow when on approach instead of the tyre accelerating when it touches the tarmac wearing the tyre and possibility risk of blowout.
How much money would it save a company in tyres each year and would it be a cost effective design?
Does anybody catch my drift
?
