Longest wearing 5.50 tires

A. Agreed, and if you can have somebody save some parTICularly nice casings,
they will retread YOUR casing rather than a random casing. I'm waiting until
the local flight school goes through one more Michelin and I'll have a full set
of Michelin casings to send down for retread. Then when I get them back, the
Goodyear Flight Customs that I've got on there now will go down.

B. Watch CAREFULLY if you use them on a retractible gear aircraft. The rubber
is just enough thicker that them may jam in the well if it is a particularly
tight fit.
