A United Airlines Boeing 757-224 lost one of its main landing gear tires during takeoff from Los Angeles International Airport. The incident, which occurred with 179 passengers and seven crew members on board, resulted in no injuries. The plane continued its journey to Denver and landed safely. The airline confirmed that the wheel was found in Los Angeles, and an investigation is underway to determine the cause. The Federal Aviation Administration will also conduct its own investigation. This event is reminiscent of a similar occurrence in March when a tire detached from another United flight departing from San Francisco International Airport, causing damage to cars in a parking lot. United Airlines stated that their aircraft are designed to land safely even if a tire is lost.
