Systematic inspection of mounted tires is strongly recommended
for safety and tire economy. How often you inspect your tires depends,
of course, on frequency and severity of landings. With some aircraft,
tire inspection after every landing or at every turnaround is required.
With all aircraft, a thorough inspection is advisable after a hard
landing.
