## Discrepancy

(CAN) FOLLOWING DEPARTURE, A GUEST REPORTED THAT THE RT INBD TIRE HAD BLOWN.  A NORMAL LANDING WAS CARRIED OUT.  IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE NR 3 TIRE HAD FAILED.  THE NR 3 AND NR 4 TIRES WERE REPLACED AND AN INSPECTION WAS CARRIED OUT.  A SMALL DENT WAS FOUND ON THE RT INBD MLG DOOR.  NO OTHER DAMAGE NOTED AND THE ACFT WAS SUBSEQUENTLY RELEASED TO SERVICE.  THE TIRE HAD BEEN RETREADED ONCE PRIOR TO THE FAILURE.
