## Discrepancy

WHILE TAXIING, THE CREW HEARD WHAT SOUNDED LIKE A TIRE BLOWING.  THE CAPTAIN CONTACTED GROUND AND RECEIVED PERMISSION TO SHUT DOWN THE ENGINES AND DO A VISUAL CHECK.  THE CAPTAIN FOUND THE LEFT MAIN OUTBOARD TIRE TO BE BLOWN.  THE PASSENGERS WERE BUSSED BACK TO THE TERMINAL.  THE AIRCRAFT WAS TAXIED TO THE HANGAR WHERE OUTSTATION MAINTENANCE INSPECTED AND REPLACED THE TIRE IN ACCORDANCE WITH DORNIER MAINTENANCE MANUAL 32-00-00.
