Sean, ve por alla!

When I got back from my first flight yesterday and was unloading my cargo, one of our pilots said, "Sean, ve por alla" or "Sean, look over there." As I turned around and looked toward the runway a C206 from our neighbor was landing and had a blowout. His airplane quickly went sideways and stopped. All told, Shell was a great place to have this happen. He even got stopped right in front of his ramp. We loaned them a tire and wheel assembly that we always have ready and they were off the runway in about 10 minutes. I don't know why the tire blew, but I'm sure the places we all fly, and the type of surfaces that we encounter had something to do with it.
