## Discrepancy

(CAN) DURING THE TAKEOFF IT WAS NOTICED THAT THE NR 3 MAIN WHEEL HAD GONE FLAT.  THE ACFT RETURNED TO THE DEPARTURE AIRPORT.  AN EMERGENCY WAS DECLARED FOR LANDING AND THE ACFT LANDED UNEVENTFULLY.  THE NR 3 AND NR 4 MAIN WHEEL ASSEMBLIES AND BRAKE ASSEMBLIES WERE REPLACED.  THE RT AFT INBD MLG DOOR WAS DAMAGED AND WAS ALSO REPLACED.  THE TIRE THAT WENT FLAT WAS A RETREADED TIRE.
