Was it really necessary to write "Do not inflate" on the wheel?  God, if they were that stupid how could they fly those planes?   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

I do believe it is a 'spare' tire used to replace the original tire while it sat on the tarmac until they fixed it.    (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Only a Vet can tell. How were these Mustangs shipped ? Were they built in England or USA ? Maybe a "tire" used for shipping ? Or for some calibration which needed a tire with a fixed diameter ?

Makes you wonder about its landing characteristics.  If you ever want to know why we have labels for stupid people on everything you can thank the brits for this.  Best one yet has to be preperation-h, do not eat!  Thank us now, ya knee biting kniggets.
