Tyre Pressure is Critical

Well I am really surprised at the comments here. Maybe they are tongue in cheek!! Correct tyre pressure is critical in respect to runway performance and braking effect. Maybe not so much in a C172 / C182 but never under estimate how important in larger aircraft. There have been a number of well publicised accidents in corporate aircraft as a result of poor runway performance resulting in fatalities.
