From the Daily Telegraph today:
Video: Qantas plane lands with tyres on fire - Telegraph (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newsvideo/7544236/Qantas-plane-lands-with-tyres-on-fire.html)
Another total non-event? They blew a couple of tyres on landing which resulted in some pretty impressive pyrotechnics given that it was at night. The A380 has 20 wheels spread across the main landing gear. Two blown at that landing weight shouldn't have been a problem.

All being dealt with on another thread which was moved from here to the Spotters area.... well worth reading it all for the laughter.
