Narrative:

Aborted at dfw on takeoff for a faulty galley door warning light. Aborted at low speed 65 KTS, went back to ramp to check the light for the door and gear for the abort. Everything checked out ok. Work had been done on the 'B' system accumulator and indicator on previous flight. Second takeoff from dfw uneventful. Upon landing at mco a slight pull to the left as we slowed down (normal landing). Cleared runway and came to complete stop. Called maintenance to have gear checked. All 4 tires on left truck blown. Believe we might have had a dragging brake that caused an overheat and deflated the tires en route. Supplemental information from acn 99584: what about mandatory brake temperature gauges on large turbojet passenger aircraft. The crew is unable to determine brake temperature from the cockpit and a dragging or an overheated brake could pose a possible catastrophic failure on takeoff or subsequent landing.

Original NASA ASRS Text

Title: LEFT MAIN TIRES BLOWN ON LNDG MCO.

Narrative: ABORTED AT DFW ON TKOF FOR A FAULTY GALLEY DOOR WARNING LIGHT. ABORTED AT LOW SPEED 65 KTS, WENT BACK TO RAMP TO CHECK THE LIGHT FOR THE DOOR AND GEAR FOR THE ABORT. EVERYTHING CHECKED OUT OK. WORK HAD BEEN DONE ON THE 'B' SYSTEM ACCUMULATOR AND INDICATOR ON PREVIOUS FLT. SECOND TKOF FROM DFW UNEVENTFUL. UPON LNDG AT MCO A SLIGHT PULL TO THE LEFT AS WE SLOWED DOWN (NORMAL LNDG). CLRED RWY AND CAME TO COMPLETE STOP. CALLED MAINT TO HAVE GEAR CHECKED. ALL 4 TIRES ON LEFT TRUCK BLOWN. BELIEVE WE MIGHT HAVE HAD A DRAGGING BRAKE THAT CAUSED AN OVERHEAT AND DEFLATED THE TIRES ENRTE. SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION FROM ACN 99584: WHAT ABOUT MANDATORY BRAKE TEMP GAUGES ON LARGE TURBOJET PAX ACFT. THE CREW IS UNABLE TO DETERMINE BRAKE TEMP FROM THE COCKPIT AND A DRAGGING OR AN OVERHEATED BRAKE COULD POSE A POSSIBLE CATASTROPHIC FAILURE ON TKOF OR SUBSEQUENT LNDG.
