Atlas Air Boeing 747 Suffers Tire Damage After Returning To Tokyo Narita Following Hydraulic Failure

The airline has experienced multiple tire incidents this year.

All three incidents took place in June.

The airport’s northern runway has now reopened for commercial flights.

That incident marked the second one for the aircraft in two days.

It is unclear exactly when the tire burst, but flight data suggests it may have occurred mid-flight.

A second incident within a week has resulted in an Atlas Air Boeing 747-8F sitting on the ground after its engine pod hit the runway while landing.
