This is the link to slightly better photos of the metal things found in the tyre (between the tube and the tyre).
Still no response from the A&P who fitted the tyre - I would have let it go once he acknowledged the problem but it looks like firing up the lawyer and going to the FAA may be the order of the day.
Particularly worrying as he has my two spare coms, 2 spare navs and my brand new ICOM.
That the repairs I paid close to $10,000 for to get my ADF and other radio navs working appear not to be working is also a worry - my glide slope nothing, NAV 2 nothing - hoping it is just some disconnected wires - that was a problem with the autopilots - when I was in the US all my days were lost sorting those out - first the alt hold worked but not the wing level, heading etc. Then when that worked the alt hold didn't - turned out to be lots of things not plugged in - hoping the other issues are the same problem.
The silence worry me!
