## Narrative

As the FAA filed it, in capitals; the FAA replaces private details with ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^.

NARRTIVE: ON FEBRUARY 5, 1994, AT 10:00 PST, A CESSNA 172 OPERATED BY TRANS AIR, BLEW-OUT BOTH MAIN TIRES AFTER LANDING ON AN AIRCRAFT CHECK-OUT FLIGHT, VISUAL METEOROLOGICAL CONDITIONS PREVAILED AND NO FLIGHT PLAN WAS FILED. THE AIRCRAFT WAS NOT DAMAGED AND THE PERSONNEL ON-BOARD WERE NOT INJURED. THE PILOT -IN-COMMAND HELD A COMMERCIAL PILOT CERTIFICATE. THE FLIGHT ORIGINATED AT SAN CARLOS AIRPORT ON FEBRUARY 5, 1994, AT 0900. THE PILOT CHECKING-OUT IN THE AIRCRAFT WAS USED TO FLYING AIRCRAFT WITH ANTI-SKID BRAKING SYSTEMS AND HAD APPLIED HEAVY BRAKING FORCE TOO SOON AFTER LANDING, CAUSING THE WHEELS TO LOCK AND THE MAIN TIRES TO BLOW-OUT. THE FLIGHT INSTRUCTOR WHO CONDUCTED THIS CHECK-OUT FLIGHT HAS BEEN COUNSELED ON TECHNIQUES FOR CHECKING FOR PROPER PLACEMENT OF THE FEET ON THE RUDDER PEDALS BEFORE LANDING. THIS TERMINATES THE INVESTIGATION AND THE REPORT IS CLOSED. NO PILOT DEVIATION AND NO 8020-11 GENERATED.

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System. Reports are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
