Tire Separates From Boeing 777, Crushes Cars In San Francisco Parking Lot<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

One day after a United Airlines’ Boeing 737 from Houston to Fort Myers experienced a\u00a0dramatic mid-flight engine fire<\/a>, a United jet heading to Japan from San Francisco lost a tire during takeoff that fell from the sky and crushed vehicles.\u00a0<\/p>\n

United Airlines Flight 35, an Oska-bound Boeing 777-200 with 249 souls on board, experienced a landing gear malfunction that caused a tire to separate from the widebody jet. The tire fell several hundred feet and then crushed vehicles in a parking lot at San Francisco International Airport.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Flight tracking website RadarBox reposted a video on X that captured the moment the tire separated from the plane’s landing gear.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“The 777-200 has six tires on each of its two main landing gear struts. The aircraft is designed to land safely with missing or damaged tires,” United Airlines told\u00a0Bloomberg<\/a>\u00a0in a statement.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Images of the crushed vehicle were posted on X.\u00a0<\/p>\n
