Couldn't use Kabul as a decompression alternate the other day due to a notam mentioning an incident. So I thought I might look it up.

Found out why,

Seems to be a lot of these lately on the 737. Is it hard landings or is there any evidence of fatigue/failure of gear components before their time?

Not sure if this one in Peru was due to a hard landing or other issue but there is a pax video of the interior during the high vibration rollout.

A punctured tire, or two, would cause heavy vibration on rollout.
