The tires are rotten and disengrating along with the rest of the plane. So sad to see that on any airplane. Watch the video in the posted link for some serious excitement!!! Quote

SwiftAire...... remember when they landed at night on runway 29 Oceano (L52) instead of intended runway 29 San Luis Obispo (SBP)? Whoops!! Oceano is 2,300 feet, San Luis is 6,000 feet! The bigger issue was, they then took off from Oceano with a plane full of passengers!!! Short field in the DeHavilland !!!! Yikes!! Quote

Even with all 4 running. Quote
