HELP! WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU HAVE A POSSIBLE PUNCTURE IN LANDING GEAR WHILST AIRBORNE? SEND A TYPHOON

- The pilot of a Eurofighter Typhoon has reported to tower of a possible puncture to one of his wheels of his landing gear. This still needs to be visually confirmed but what exactly are the pilots options?
First and foremost, the pilot needs to contact tower. Depending on traffic and what is in the circuit, tower keeps the emergency Typhoon in the circuit at 1000ft and tries to locate a Typhoon that can carry out a visual inspection. This is pretty much the only way to get a visual inspection of the suspected puncture. Tower locates two Typhoons on recovery but one is on minimum fuel but the other has enough fuel to carry out the visual inspection. You will see the two Typhoons from XI (F) squadron with our inspecting aircraft on initial and into the break. Callsign RAZOR, goes into the break and carefully gets behind our emergency Typhoon and carries out a careful visual inspection.
Now the outcome of this could have been a disaster as this involved a punctured wheel, however, for what ever reason, then landing gear was fine. What made the pilot think the tyre had a puncture? Was it a harsh touch and go? Was it a slow puncture from before take off? Whatever the reason, all ENDED WELL!

I'll get my coat
I'm guessing there looking for deformation of the tyres, any holes in them as when they blow I'd presume the put a pretty decent hole in the tyre. And at flying speed I'd presume the tyre will deform slightly with air pressure against it.
Now there is something that you dont see every day. Actually i dont think i have ever seen something like this!!! Thanks for capturing and posting.
Thanks Andre and thank goodness it was all ok
I'm actually surprised they haven't got small cameras built in, to check their own gear or fuselage for battle damage. Surely would be extremely easy to implement.
Those Typhoons look menacing. When in doubt-check it out. Good deal that all ended well. Great job by both pilots. Possibly another catastrophe avoided. Thanks for posting. Always good stuff.
Thanks Craig. Yes all ended well and thankfully we got to see the process with a nice outcome
I've only just discovered this channel, and already I love it
Oii Oii Karen thank you so much and welcome to the Ted Coningsby Channel 🤙🏼 Glad you have found our channel, enjoy our channel and hope to see in the live chats too
Im ex -RAF and Crash crew or as we call it now ARFF ( very American ) . In my day I don't think aircraft had tyre sensors as the only checks I ever saw back then was Undercarriage checks due to not having three greens or a suspect hydraulic failure . At the airfield I work at we have some very bright lights on the grass in front of the Tower to illuminate an Aircraft at night with suspect gear failure and yes it works . I imagine it is hard unless there is obvious damage to the tire to spot , as there is no weight on tires at that point . I guess he was looking for any damage or flat spots on the tire . Im no pilot but I can only guess they will burn as much fuel in the air as possible before attempting a landing , one it's lighter and two much less fuel in case things go wrong . Meaning much less of a fire if it does go wrong . Thank you for the video 🙂 .
Thanks for your comments. Yes, the pilots know what to look for and it was due to a hard “touch and go” which led to the issue. Luckily it was most likely a sensor of the landing gear. Each wheel on a Typhoon has 6 sensors, so something happened to one of them.
It is amazing to see the professionalism of our amazing RAF, and their coolness under pressure. A couple of months ago I asked a Tornado pilot from Desert Storm how he coped flying above the desert at night at high speed, to deliver a JP233. He said you trust your training and the rest of your team. These are your real heroes ladies, gents and Teddy bears
Oii oiii Jon, they are fully trained on what to look for and our video shows the process. Still, very tense and waiting for the outcome from the inspecting Typhoon was bad enough for us on the ground yet alone the pilot. All ended well thank goodness
😮wow glad everyone was safe ❤️
Yes all ended well
Great video.Professional improvisation to sort things. Once witnessed a blow out of a Tornado front wheel when they were operating out of Honington. Typical “Tonka” hardly deviated at all. Tough as old boots.
Thank you
Had a puncture repair kit for my bike. It came in a wee metal tin. Mmm, maybe not ideal for this scenario tho'. An insight into how the crews deal with this not good situation. Relieved all were safe & well.
Margo
You can now buy bike tubes with a gel inside them.
This gel immediately seals any holes.
Some cars now have tyres which self inflate should a 'blowout' occur.
A temporary measure.
Again, I'm surprised nothing has been invented for aircraft.
A pal of mine worked for Dunlop in Birmingham.
Making tyres for the Harrier.
@@gazza2933 thank you. Have heard of that gel stuff. Maybe we could invent a tyre puncture repair kit for aircraft 😁? Piece of equipment that comes out & on to the tyre (bit like mid air refueling) & inflates the tyre with that gel stuff? Total respect to your Harrier tyre friend. Oh, I know someone who may have built the navigation systems for the Harrier (nudge, nudge say no more! 😜). Bring back the Harrier too. 🥰xx
Great formation flying skills at this slow speed.
I would have thought that a temporary self-inflating tyre would have been available.
On the grass in front of the Tower there are a set of lights which face upwards.
Should an aircraft have undercarriage problems at night, then the lights can be used with the aircraft making a low, slow flyby.
For a ground visual inspection.
Well filmed Ted and Nikos.
Thankfully, this video wasn't needed for official purposes.
👍
Hi Gazza, tense situation and waiting to hear back from the Typhoon carrying out inspection was so tense for us, goodness knows what it was like for the pilot in the emergency aircraft.
All ended well
I just said the same about the lights 🙂 , you ex RAF or worked on Airfields before im guessing you have .
Surprised there are no air pressure sensors in those tyres! Even cars have that these days…
I think it might have something to do with pressure change at altitude..... kinda makes the sensor duff or might over pressure the sensor into breaking
Half expecting the cockpit window to open and a hand come out with a tyre pressure gauge :
$125million dollars and it doesn't come with a spare?
Remarkable.
Wish contact were Easier!🕊️🍗👀
Extremely interesting how this procedure was carried out in this unforeseen event. I'm bewildered how the airborne inspection could possibly tell if there definitely was a deflated tyre unless you put some kind of load onto it first. I guess it was just a visual for any obvious sign of deflation. I'm no expert so who knows. Great video.
That's what I was thinking, how could the other pilot possibly tell if there was a puncture. Also, I was surprised he didn't use the air-brake after landing.
Didn't hear scanner myself but there was talk about a blown tyre instead of puncture. That would be easy to inspect visually, well, apart from the whole close flying 'n all.
This is one of the procedures for the visual inspection, the other being a slow pass across tower which can happen but wouldn’t be as effective as a full view by a inspecting aircraft. They would know what to look out for but it’s all about safety and process
A very odd display and some strange radio going on in back ground. These are very good looking fighters. In the hands of a learner there would be a steep learning curve. I think you got lucky and caught part of that. Some good footage and a good story to go with it.
This was not a display, this was an emergency and you got to see the process where one aircraft came to inspect the aircraft with a suspected puncture in the landing gear.
And so much for flying cars in the near future.......think I'll stick to ground based cars thanks!!
Phew. Found myself holding my breath for a bit there! So proud of our forces, how professional and calm they are in emergency situations.
Maybe Drew can help find out why the sensor tripped?
💖
What an incredibly rare event! Excellent catch; the reward for endless patience.🙂
Absolute brilliant work Ted. First time I ever seen anything like that thanks to you and the channel. Thank you 🙏
Thanks very much. It is nice as this ended well and pilots/crew safe
Great video! What a landing though... hardly any tyre squeal..
You'd think these guys would be in the AA at least.
Royal Air Force
Nuff said
Why don’t they have puncture proof tyres
You can't compare these tyres to bicycle or truck tyres. They have much more extreme operating temperatures and need to withstand enormous impacts. They already are much stronger and puncture resistant than "normal" tyres.
You cannot have a puncture proof tyre!!! If it was possible it would be solid and have with it a myriad of issues concerning its use!?
WOW! Steady nerve there, well done to all involved. A fitted camera for the under cart area would be an advantage maybe!🤔🤔
Oii Oii Roy. Luckily it was just a sensor fault on the gear due to a hard touch and go at Leeming if I remember.
@@TedConingsby 👍👍
Brilliant as usual, very pleased aircraft landed safely.
How is the other Tiffy pilot able to tell if it’s punctured or not? Unless the tyre is off the rim 💁🏻♂️
Edit. Good news, all fine then 👍🏼
Maybe their TPMS is made by BMW 🤦♂️😂
Great video … well done. Glad it all worked out 👏👏👏
I’m pretty sure that despite sounding real it was a training exercise as there were no emergency vehicles when he landed?? Just guessing
The pilot had reported the issue to the tower after a touch and go. The emergency services were alerted, but due to the nature of the issue, could not be relocated too close to the runway. After the second aircraft had confirmed that everything seemed to be ok, the emergency services were stood down. If the visual inspection had deemed that there was an issue needing further action, I am sure that the emergency response would have been appropriate. The usual practice in such an emergency is an initial visual assessment by either another aircraft or the tower.
For a practice emergency you would not use an airplane recovering low on fuel to do the inspection, they would just do it after take-off to have plenty of options to recover. Guessing is a very bad thing to do around aircraft emergencies, ones that could be recovered and ones that ended badly.
@@arjenav5968 hi Arjen I was not guessing at the emergency only that i thought it may not have been an emergency. Having been involved in a very similar event as an engineer with an aircraft reporting undercarriage issues despite many visual checks from fly pasts and a certainty all was ok we still had all the emergency services deployed on site, again thankfully all was ok. Believe me as an aircraft engineer of 40 years safety is paramount and I would never guess.
@@SteveMorrisTCS Fair enough. As said, the emergency vehicles were available, just not visible on the video but visible to those on scene. It was not a practice.
Hi Steve, I remember the crash team were called out but tucked away as they had to stay clear of the runway. There were flashing lights but you couldn’t see them on the video. I remember the pilot was meant to land and did a go around and tower asked a reason for change of intentions. Pilot reported a possible puncture. Tower said to carry our circuits to see if they could track a typhoon available. A flight of two were on recovery but wingman had zero fuel and the other had enough fuel to go carry out inspection. This is all we could remember.
The TPMS on my Mini Cooper is always playing up too 😂
Probably either a faulty TPIS (Tyre Pressure Indicator System) sensor, or a glitch in the aircraft's monitoring equipment..... 😎
Yes, we believe this is what might have been the issue after a touch and go
Typhoons don’t have a tyre pressure sensor and unable to monitor it in the cockpit.
@@notmenotme614 Blimey! That does surprise me ....
One learns something every day...
Great footage Teddi and Nikos of the checking up on your fellow pilots situation.👍😁
Thank you
Hi. What antenna do you recommend for the Uniden UBC 125XLT?
Is that Nikos , David Attenborough impersonation 😂
Just got to see this type of thing a week ago when the blue angles came in to land after their performance, i think it was #3 who aborted their landing & #4 picked their gear up and caught up with 3 to inspect it, all ended well 👍
Good to see they had all angles covered
Imagine he did have a puncture but did not have enough fuel to hold! 😮
In which case my guess....only a guess, is that he would take the arrester cable and poss the barrier. No messing around if at Bingo fuel.
Groundcrew Drew u'll fix it but not up there. No no no
Got to work on it on the “grand”
@@TedConingsby LOL 😆 😂 I love Groudcrew Drew he's a card
Talking of aircraft tyres - I lived at RAF Leconfield in the early 60s and there was a squadron of Lightnings there (my Dad was a Winchman on 202 Sqn).
I used to wander up to the far end of Arram Road (we lived in one of the WO's quarters - number 6) occasionally to watch the aircraft coming and going. Once saw a Lightning land so hard that he bounced right up in the air, but came down again and continued to make a successful landing.
Mentioned it to my Dad that evening, and he reckoned that a Lightning's tyres were good for only two landings, and the Oleo legs for only seven, (or nine, can't remember which), landings! Scary to see!
Oh wow. Thanks for sharing 🤙🏼 respect to your dad for serving
Didn't get the invite on time. It was the business man
Thanks man
so all the money spent on development and no one thought about TPMS or a camera
You wouldn't expect to see a flat tyre, would you ????😊
Always a thrill to see these aircraft flying. Amazing skills these pilots have and the the calmness they show in these situations….a clear head is definitely needed to fly these super aircraft. I wonder how the landing would have proceeded if it had been a blown tyre….is there such a thing as a ‘soft’ landing. Ie, grass….I’m sure someone will tell me. And how was the pilot made aware of this, a panel light or something felt on takeoff! 👋🇬🇧
Thank you very much. Should the worse outcome be confirmed, they would need to evacuate any personal on the airfield (inc runway caravan) chute deployed too. The crash team were ready but you couldn’t see them in the shot. All ended well
Yep, flying is dangerous. Just wondering what difference it makes, it's not like he can change the tyre & then land. Seems to me, it's either point the plane at the sea & eject, or land on the tyre regardless. Is a visual, 100% accurate? If not your going to want to empty the tanks, then land with emergency ground crew deployed right?
Excellent result!
You would NEVER ditch a £100m plane over a burst tyre!!!! You would put it down end of!!
No kidding, you don't humour do you.@@juleshathaway3894
In the absence of another aircraft to have a visual check, the pilot would do a slow speed pass close to the tower for a visual check from there. Have experienced that a few times in my RAF career.
Also
Remember a time at Marham in the early 80’s, I was out switching on the LE58 emergency flare path lights as dusk fell and we had a Victor up on an air defence sortie. I noticed a few pieces of FOD on the runway so went for a closer look. It was chunks of rubber from one of the tyres which had exploded during the takeoff run. There was nothing we could do for a few hours apart from clean the runway with a sweeper, until it returned where he did a normal approach and a gentle touchdown with no further issues.
Hi Jules, yes that is the alternative; a slow speed pass across tower. Luckily there was a Typhoon already on recovery for a visual inspection, which would be more effective.
Lucky to get a driver out! We always waited for them on the flightline!
Brings it home how at risk it all is. No fast tyre change here. Reality right there. Ted captures the worrying moments. But the pilots and ATC do their due care duties. Top aces!! Eurofighter cool boys. Land it and lump it. Oii oii
Phew. Was holding my breath as it came in to land. Took no chances and came in as slow and gentle as he could. Do we discover what made him (I assume it was a him, don't shoot me!) think he had a blown tyre? All's well that ends well.
A faulty sensor on the landing gear maybe after the touch and go. But whatever the reason all was well. Also you get to see how it works with the inspecting aircraft.
@@TedConingsby OK, thanks for the info. I missed the touch and go part (obviously lol)
Nikos, if the Typhoon landed with a puncture what could cause a disaster?
With the speeds and energies involved... imbalance may cause aircraft to veer off runway. The mishap aircaft may collapse part of the landing gear (and veer off runway). Once it hits the grass it can tumble, summersault, or lots of other nasty things. There is a lot that could go wrong, unfortunately. Even if the pilot ejects, debris of the plane can still cause trouble.
Thanks, Arjen, if you put it this way...is a puncture something that happens regularly?
@@meertenwelleman4600 Define regularly.. and define "puncture", I guess. Especially with larger airplanes that need to land early, you can regularly see blown tyres because the aircraft were over safe landing weight (sometimes there's no time to dump fuel). As for leaks, punctures, slow deflate, fast deflate on jet fighters... Im sure it all happens occasionally, but I have no idea how often.
So you have to visualise that the aircraft will have one wheel with just bare metal as the impact will shred the tyre. There is a risk that the aircraft will skid out of control and go anywhere so lives are totally at risk. Speaking of lives at risk, there is the pilot’s safety. Should it get totally out of control the pilot may have to eject. In the end, landing with other than tyres is going to be a dangerous landing
Thanks, Arjen. Must be exciting living close-by Leeuwarden Airbase.
Phew ! Close call there..... RTB successful landing, now change out of those brown trowsers 😁. Mike P-J
and what do see that makes it obvious that it's a flat?
Excellent stuff mate. Great capture that
Thank you very much
Isn't it ilegal to monitor ATC transmissions in the UK? Just wondering if any legal ways?
Yes but only if you get caught and it's quiet lax unless you get caught spying
I wonder if a light came on on the dashboard tyre pressure low lol. What happens if the other pilot says yes your tyre is deflated it`s not as if he can stay up there. Nice bit of flying
If the result was a puncture a very different procedure will be initiated on the runway. There would be a full evacuation of anyone near the runway, including the runway caravan. The crash team were already there but you couldn’t see them in the shot. The aircraft could go out of control on landing so even for us it’s a very nervous time too.
Not really sure what the inspection did. If he has a puncture, he still has to land, so what difference did that make?
Landing an aircraft with a punctured tyre would result in a dangerous scenario for not only the pilot but for everyone and everything around it. The pilot’s safety would be at high risk, the runway caravan would be evacuated, the aircraft could swerve out of control, it would damage the runway, pretty much an unpredictable outcome. The visual inspection is crucial for safety otherwise they won’t know what action to take.
Low pressure warning light maybe faulty...
Possibly. It had a hard touch and go at Leeming and with about 6 sensors on each wheel, I think it was better to be safe than sorry
Probably not if the tyre is flat but intact
They should call in Tom Cruise , I'm pretty sure he could change the tyre in mid air
Awesome pieces of machinery. Maybe this was a planned mock test.
The Typhoon had a hard “touch and go” at Leeming which could have created a fault or warning on the sensors. There was a crash team ready also.
What is the point of an inspection and how could you tell if there was a problem with a tyre with no load .. how odd
Because this is what they are trained to do and what to look for. If the worse should happen then the procedure would be very different. The aircraft could go out of control on landing and endangering the pilot’s life. The runway caravan would most certainly be evacuated and anyone around it.
???
option 1 - has obvious puncture -> trap landing
option 2 - cannot confirm puncture -> trap landing
so what difference does it make to do the inspection? excuse my ignorance.
Because if there was a puncture they would need to evacuate the runway and any personnel on that runway, including the runway caravan. This is process. The aircraft can get out of control on landing with a puncture endangering pilot/crews lives. That aircraft could go anyway including towards me. This is cool, professional procedure. Best to check. Remember aircraft tyres are no like cares and bikes
@@TedConingsby ok, but a visual inspection is not confirmation, so surely the assumption has to be that there is a puncture regardless.
Superbly professional 👌.....a faulty sensor no doubt 😉
Disappointed - @TedConingsby he should have at least flown up there with a spare, jack and wrench and changed it... :)
How long can they leave the landing gear down for before damage occurs?
As long as they need, they just need to keep the speed below a certain maximum for lowered gear.
Just wonderful !
To what end? He had to come down sometime puncture or no puncture.
There would be a a very different procedure should the puncture been confirmed. You have to understand that aircraft with a puncture can go out of control, flip over or literally go anywhere.
Having anyone on the runway would be extremely dangerous and would never be an option. The only thing similar to what you are saying which they would do as an option if there were no aircraft nearby would be to flypast tower. This is a procedure they would do. But the best visual inspection would be to have a pilot fly close by. This is the best visual option. Pilots are trained on what to look out for. FYI, if there was a puncture, they would most certainly clear all personnel anyway near the runway, including the evacuation of the runway caravan. The aircraft can potentially lose control on landing. Thank goodness it never came to that
Ok, so let's see a tyre change at 1,000ft please. 😊
I have changed a wheel on an aircraft when it was flying 🤔 mind you it was a helicopter in the hover! Wessex Mk111 at Portland, Dorset .
Coooll
Curious what difference the inspection makes? Would he land wheels up if there was a puncture/tyre mising ?

@@TedConingsby Perhaps I should have been clearer.. How can anyone tell if the tyre is punctured without weight on the wheel? I mean unless its exploded, you aren't going to be able to see a small hole from another aircraft or a tower fly by. So surely everyone should continue to assume its punctured regardless of the visual inspection?
Aircraft tyres are not like tyres on a car or bicycle so they have like layer on layers which make them stronger so the inspecting pilot is looking for a clear blow out or damage.
Seems completely pointless to me. The aircraft has to land regardless of the state of the tyre, so just treat the landing as if there was a blown tyre and you would be no worse off. Unless the ground crew might put out a foam blanket etc.
Ted.. what antenna to scanner you use ? ;-)
UnidenXLT125
What are the rules for listening to Air Traffic frequencies. I actually live on the circuit for a major airport and would love to listen in. Any ideas on a fairly cheap air band scanner?
Can't speak for rules in UK... But the Uniden 125XLT is by far most popular reasonably priced scanner (see a pic on the outtro of Ted's videos). A little hard to get it seems as so many want one. Free software available to update its contents and I think every spotters group knows someone who can load frequencies on it.
Thank god that ended well best pilots in the world in my opinion ☘️
Thank you
Where were the fire wagons?
They were ready at the other end of the runway, but not in view in this video.
In position where the crash team are located (you can’t see them on the video). In this scenario they would not have them near the runway and most likely have had the runway caravan evacuated if it was to land with a puncture.
No emergency vehicles in sight! Maybe an exercise..
Emergency / crash team vehicles were out ready. You couldn’t see them in the video but they were there ready. You wouldn’t have a crash team there near the runway with an aircraft that could potentially go out of control as the aircraft could collide into the crash team. Also, the crew of the runway caravan would most likely be evacuated for their own safety
Does RAF Coningsby have a resident runabout Hawk trainer ?, send that up to inspect the Typhoon,s undercarriage to ascertain which wheel has the deflated tyre, then foam the runway. You cannot piss around with a pilot,s life and a several hundred million pound jet fighter .
Thank you for your suggestion. No, there is no Hawk ready, preflighted and fueled up ready to go. That would be quite a bit more complicated than it may seem at first glance. Fortunately there are several other options for a visual inspection, if another recoverying Typhoon had not been near.
Fair enough but having a Grob a light trainer aircraft is the better option ,aircraft, I use the term loosely, more akin to a lawnmower with wings and easily started like said lawnmower. Okay the speed difference between a lawnmower and a dirty Typhoon is significant but gives the tower staff and erks visual information regarding the Typhoon,s undercarriage and a good thing Typhoon drivers fly in pairs. @@arjenav5968
Was all precautionary. The Jet had done a few Touch & Gos at Leeming. Upon arrival back at CGY, was informed by ATC that the Leeming controller had reported hearing a loud pop on the last touch down and was concerned a tyre may have blown. After visual inspection by CGY ATC and the other jet, all was reported to appear normal so a standard landing was attempted instead of taking the cable or streaming the brake chute.
The Typhoon has 6 sensors on each wheel and yes, a hard touch and go would have set this off too. You can get an inspection from tower but a visual inspection from another aircraft would be a lot more accurate. Absolutely crucial precautionary procedure. You cannot assume a puncture as actions for each would change, including evacuation of runway caravan, crash teams on standby etc.
@@TedConingsby Unfortunately no wheel sensors display tyre pressure info in cockpit, sensors are for engineering purposes after flight. Only info pilot gets is whether landing gear is locked down or not. In this instance, only info available about tyre was from air traffic reporting there *may* be a problem due to a noise they heard. Got ATC to take a look as that was the best option until Razor formation happened to arrive home just in time to do an airborne inspection while I still had sufficient fuel remaining.
Cool, that explains why there seemed to be talk about blown tyre rather than puncture. Still, nice to see procedure working, all calm and steady.
Inspection from 4:10
Teamwork.
❤
Either way you gotta come down
Different procedures for each scenario
A dodgy tyre pressure sensor? A super soft touch landing though, just in case!
Each wheel has 6 sensors so after a hard touch and go, it could be possible the sensor had a fault/warning.
@@TedConingsby Typhoons do not have tyre pressure sensors. They only have anti-skid sensors and weight-on-wheels sensors on the main undercarriage legs.
Very cool footage!
Thank you
So glad they landed safely ❤
Thank you Wenda 💜🩵❤️
I am amazed that you can tune into and listen to what is going on , back in my day all radio coms were protected .
All we need is for a Tanker aircraft upgrade so that they also do tyre change and/or rotation and we can avoid these situations.
Pointless exercise, if it's punctured or not it's still gotta land.
Process will be very different for the worse outcome. We are talking about endangering lives if the aircraft landed and went out of control. So this process has to be carried out
