Jet transport airplane rejected takeoffs (RTO's) at heavy weights and high speeds and RTO accidents/incidents involving tires, wheels, and brakes have prompted an assessment of RTO test procedures and the system by which RTO accountability is achieved for day-to-day operations. It is concluded that 3 to 4% of air carrier accidents, fatalities, and aircraft losses can be attributed to tire/wheel/brake related RTO's. Tire failures and the lack of accountability for the increased accelerate-stop distance required on wet/slippery runways are significant factors. Recommendations are made for reducing the incidence of tire failures and accounting for the increased accelerate-stop distance necessitated by wet/slippery runways. (Author)
