Accident! Hawker Hurricane [NX54FH] Loses a Tire at Paine Field ᴴᴰ

Gepubliceerd op 6 okt. 2015

After a practice for an airshow known as the Flying Heritage Collection SkyFair, this Hawker Hurricane from the Flying Heritage
Collection touched down on runway 16R, nearly sustained a prop strike, and lost its right main tire, resulting in quite a bit of smoke and sparks. The pilot climbed out just fine (from the looks of it), and was welcomed by Paine Field fire crew and personnel from the Collection.

This video includes ATC from the LiveATC archives, the incident, a bit of the aftermath, and some slow motion shots of the incident at the end.
