"The aircraft are designed to operate without a full complement of tires and the pilots are trained to fly and land a plane safely with a flat tire, Fitzpatrick said."

Not airline training, but I did practice with blown out tires in the sim while I was at Purdue. The situation involved a quick seat change at the end of the session and we forgot to turn the anti-skid back on(sim instructor said it was his fault!). So I did the V1 cut in the 727-200 sim, and blew out all the tires. I still stopped it by the end of the runway, but pretty sure the engines were probably toast!!!!
