they have tire pressure sensors so I'm guessing that the pilot would get an alert that the tire pressure info for that tire disappeared

- oynqr 3y agoBoeing is going to fix this by installing tyre _presence_ sensors.

- hagbard_c 3y agoNah, they'll be going for the latest iteration of TriMCAS - Tricycle Manoeuvrability Characteristics Augmentation System - which makes the plane behave more or less like it should plus or minus some tyres. They'll make the whole system dependent on a single ABS sensor in one of the front wheels though so if that wheel happens to fall off the plane will ground loop upon touching down.
