| Confidence Rating: |  Accident investigation report completed and information captured |
During takeoff at Venice, the left inboard main wheel tyre (number 2) shed its tyre tread.
Because there were no indications of other problems with the aircraft the commander continued the flight to Manchester. On approach to Manchester, the crew declared an emergency and then carried out an uneventful landing on Runway 24L.
The tread had failed as a result of overstress in the sidewall of the tyre leading to a break up of the tyre casing plies. Air penetrated through the failure in the inner wall of the tyre and then permeated through the casing leading to the tread package lifting from the carcass. The overstress was attributed to the tyre running under inflated due to an air leak from the overpressure valve. The leak was due to corrosion on the over pressure valve seat from a poor anodised layer during manufacture and a degraded O-ring seal.
