Flight IranAir, IRA 764, was a scheduled passenger flight from Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (EHAM) to Teheran/Mehrabad (THR/OIII). At 13:47 UTC IRA reports on the frequency with Schiphol delivery.
Within the next minutes the engines were started and a push back before taxi was completed. IRA 764 was cleared to taxi via taxiway B north to runway 09. At 13:59 ATC requested IRA 764 to increase its taxi speed as there is traffic behind. Sometime after this request an aircraft taxiing behind IRA 764 reported patches of smoke coming from the left tyres and brakes area of IRA 764. IRA 764 copied this message but reported that there were no unusual indications in the cockpit.
Shortly afterwards IRA 764 reported to the Air Traffic Control (ATC) heating on the left wheel brake and requested the brake to be checked by their own (on board) ground mechanics. This was at first refused because first the fire brigade had to check the supposed overheated break of the Left Hand (LH) Main Landing Gear (MLG). Therefore ATC requested IRA 764 to switch off their engines. Only after several request and demands IRA 764 was willing to do so. A visual inspection was carried out by the on board ground mechanics and a ground mechanic of a local maintenance company. A misalignment of wheel no. 5 was observed. After been towed back to the parking area removal of the wheel revealed that the axle and axle sleeve were sheared off. The tire had not been deflated.
