## Narrative

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

(-23) ON SEPTEMBER 22, 2001, WHILE THE FLIGHT CREW TAXIED OUT FOR DEPARTURE, THEY NOTICED A RIGHT MAIN FLAT TIRE. THE CREW NOTIFIED THE CONTROL TOWER AND THE AIRCRAFT WAS TOWED TO THE RAMP. MAINTENANCE CONTROL AT MXIA WAS NOTIFIED. MXIA DISPATCHED A BARON 58 WITH A MTC TECH AND A MAIN WHEEL ASSY TO ERI. MTC REMOVED AND REPLACED THE WHEEL AND TIRE ASSY. MTC DID NOT RETURN THE AIRCRAFT TO SERVICE AS THEY NOTICED THE LEFT MAIN WHEEL ASSY TIRE PRESSURE LOW. MTC RETURNED TO MXIA, THEN BACK TO ERI ON SEPTEMBER 23, 2001 TO REPLACE THE LEFT MAIN WHEEL ASSY. THE AIRCRAFT WAS RETURNED TO SERVICE ON SEPTEMBER 23, 2001. COMPLETION OF THIS REPORT CLOSES THIS INCIDENT.
