United flight blows two tires on landing at RSW
Southwest Florida International Airport (RSW) closed operations after a United Boeing 737-8 plane blew two tires while landing. At around 11 a.m., an airport alert was sent regarding possible blown tires on landing. People on board the United Airlines flight told NBC2 that the flight had gone smoothly up until landing.

Friend was delayed 24 hours by that. Apparently, there wasn't a jack available at Fort Myers to get the plane on its feet again and a large part of the delay was waiting for equipment to be brought from Orlando.
The jack is probably holding up the causeway to Sanibel Island
They had to close the airport while waiting on the Michelin Man.
HAHAHA!
Does the 737 co-pilot brakes have no anti-skid like the KC-135? I can't tell you how many tires I changed over the years cuz some co-pilot tapped his toes on the brake pedals on landing.
Passenger said there was the sound of a puff of smoke. What does a puff sound like?
