> I will never fly with Sevenair again. Sevenair flight RVP952 from Portimão to Lisbon, I looked out of the window and was shocked to see that the left main landing gear tyre was completely bald, with no visible tread whatsoever. As a private pilot with 47 years experience I would never fy with a tyre in this condition. This totally unacceptable on a commercial passenger aircraft. Whether or not the tyre technically complied with the manufacturer's maintenance limits is for the aviation authorities to determine. However, any airline that presents an aircraft to paying passengers in this condition demonstrates, in my opinion, an unacceptable attitude towards aircraft maintenance and passenger confidence. I photographed the tyre before departure and have reported the matter, together with the photographs, to Portugal's National Civil Aviation Authority (ANAC) for investigation as a potential flight safety issue. Commercial aviation depends on public confidence. Seeing a completely worn-out main landing gear tyre did exactly the opposite. I will not be flying with Sevenair again and cannot recommend the airline to anyone who expects the highest standards of safety and aircraft maintenance and professionalism.
