Notes:

This aircraft had to abort its take-off run after a tyre blew as it gathered speed.There was a loud bang and a puff of smoke which everyone on the ground heard and saw and luckily so did the controller in the tower because he reported it to the crew which enabled them to stop.The fire trucks arrived quickly and moved the aircraft after checking it over....delays were minimal.
