USTMA Issues Seven Aircraft Tire Service Bulletins
WASHINGTON, Mar. 2, 2021—The U.S. Tire Manufacturers Association has published seven Aircraft Tire Service Bulletins (ATSB) to offer the most current safety guidelines for tires used on aircraft. While six of the bulletins were updated from previous published versions, Volume 8, “Foreign Object Debris (FOD)” is a new to the ATSB collection focused on keeping tarmacs free from tire damaging debris, a leading cause of aircraft tire damage.
