What is the TLG tire pressure limit?

The TLG (Tactical Landing Gear) tire pressure limit is crucial for ensuring optimal performance, safety, and operational integrity of the MH-60S aircraft. The accepted pressure range of 100-110 psi typically ensures that the tire maintains its structural integrity while providing the necessary grip and support during takeoff, landing, and ground operations.

Maintaining tire pressure within this specific range helps in distributing the aircraft's weight evenly across the tire surface, reducing wear and tear, and preventing potential blowouts that could result from under-inflation or over-inflation. Correct tire pressure is also essential for avoiding malfunctions during critical flight operations where tire performance can significantly impact safety and maneuverability.

Understanding the appropriate tire pressure limits is vital for the Plane Captain, as they are responsible for pre-flight inspections and ground handling, ensuring that the aircraft is in the best possible condition for flight operations.
