I could be wrong here, and will gladly take corrections...
I spent most of Monday at EGFF, and I think I am right in saying that the A320 in question lost a tire earlier in the day.... the airport closed for a very short time whilst something was going on (I was flying at the time), and I was told that the 320 had lost a tyre.
Later in the day, it came back from somewhere, and the smell of burning rubber when it landed was strong enough to raise comments over on the south side.... we don't get to smell rubber very often, but this time it STANK. No sign of reverse thrust being used either.
Was this all the same plane? Are these facts facts? Are they connected?
