Yip sure did Ty and the only way for it to be repaired is shut down engines and wait 20 minutes lol

How did you manage to blow the tyre in the first place? Was it on landing or some very shonky bag handler?

I love aircraft that inject a little realism and have faults and failures. It makes the sim experience so much more challenging and realistic. The worst i have had is in the A2A Comanche on a left base to 07 and NZTG and i went to drop the flaps and the left flap did not move but the right did. That got my attention very quickly and required some very quick thinking and action to recover before flying a circuit to land with the flaps set at the lower setting and speed slightly higher.

Last week of the holiday for me this week so i am hoping for crappy weather so i can get some excessive swimming in.

was my first flight in the dash and something went wrong on takeoff starting climbing and then went into a spiral and could not get out of it. Hit the deck landing gear had come down and blew the tyres. Need to check and see if I can turn failures off now lol
