Had one on take off from Ascension island on an l1011. We didn't notice anything in the cockpit.
Landed 8 hours later at MPA and noticed a brake temp was 0 and had a bogie tilt light on landing.
Quick look outside shows a bit of rubber around one of the rims where a tyre used to be.

literally no effect on our operation but a bit of a delay on the next flight. No damage to the airframe.
