## Discrepancy

FOUND A BULGE ON THE SIDEWALL OF THE NR 1 MLG TIRE. BULGE IS JUST BELOW THE TIRE CAP AND IS 8750" LONG, .3750" WIDE, AND PROTRUDED ABOUT .0625". THIS IS ON THE NEWER -2 TIRE FOR THE ACFT WHICH WAS SUPPOSE TO ALLEVIATE BULGING AS SEEN ON THE OLDER -1 TIRES.  RECOMMEND ALL OPERATORS KEEP A CLOSE EYE ON THEIR TIRES AS THIS TIRE HAD ONLY 56 LANDINGS.
