Narrative:

While giving an ATP/light transport aircraft type check ride, the candidate made a very smooth landing followed by a rollout with four flat tires. This resulted in the closing of the newberg, ny, airport until the aircraft was removed from the runway. Prior to this landing, we made an aborted takeoff at 120 KTS on an 85 degree day, followed by a takeoff and ADF approach-ending with this landing. The apparent problem was that the tires overheated and blew the wheel fuses which deflated the tires. There are no takeoff charts on the light transport jet that address takeoff brake energy limits other than for altitude versus aircraft weight. (No ground speed/abort charts).

Title: FLC ON TRAINING CHECKRIDE FLT IN LTT JET OVERHEAT TIRES IN PRACTICE HIGH SPEED REJECTED TKOF AND SUBSEQUENT DEP.

Narrative: WHILE GIVING AN ATP/LTT ACFT TYPE CHK RIDE, THE CANDIDATE MADE A VERY SMOOTH LNDG FOLLOWED BY A ROLLOUT WITH FOUR FLAT TIRES. THIS RESULTED IN THE CLOSING OF THE NEWBERG, NY, ARPT UNTIL THE ACFT WAS REMOVED FROM THE RWY. PRIOR TO THIS LNDG, WE MADE AN ABORTED TKOF AT 120 KTS ON AN 85 DEG DAY, FOLLOWED BY A TKOF AND ADF APCH-ENDING WITH THIS LNDG. THE APPARENT PROB WAS THAT THE TIRES OVERHEATED AND BLEW THE WHEEL FUSES WHICH DEFLATED THE TIRES. THERE ARE NO TKOF CHARTS ON THE LTT JET THAT ADDRESS TKOF BRAKE ENERGY LIMITS OTHER THAN FOR ALT VERSUS ACFT WEIGHT. (NO GND SPD/ABORT CHARTS).
