## Discrepancy

(CAN) THE NOSE WHEEL TIRE INNER TUBE HAD 220 HRS SINCE NEW.  IT WAS FOUND TORN ON THE SIDE WALL.  NO HARD LANDING WAS REPORTED.  THE INSIDE OF THE TIRE WAS FOUND FREE OF DEFECTS.  THIS TO ME IS AN OBVIOUS MANUFACTURING PROBLEM.  IT HAPPENED ON TAXI FROM THE RUNWAY AFTER NORMAL LANDING.
