I'd love to see that photo, it'd be a learning experience. I have questions though, in the picture was a portion of the wheel still being held in place or was it just an empty axle with a nut and cotter pin? And wouldn't that photo been taken at LAX after they landed? I can post a picture of darn near anything and claim it's something completely different.I saw a photo online of the axle nut and cotter pin still installed on the axle of the 777 at SFO, indicating it wasn’t an mx failure but was rather a fatigue crack failure of the aluminum wheel! (Can’t find the photo anymore or I’d share it.)
I wonder if this 757 wheel ends up being the same issue?
