Narrative:

I was conducting initial operating experience with a new first officer. It was his second flight in revenue operations with a strong left crosswind on approach to runway 6 at bdl. He was flying the aircraft and during landing (after a slight bounce and touchdown with a side load) the right main tire had rolled off the rim and west assumed that a blow-out had occurred. I taxied the aircraft (short SD3-60/300) off runway 6 onto taxiway 'K' between runway 6 and taxiway charlie (C). The aircraft was secured at this point and 8 passenger were bussed from the aircraft to the terminal building. No accident significant damage or injury resulted. The runway (6) and taxiway (C) remained open. I believe the problem was caused by inadequate crosswind correction on the first officer's behalf and possibly a weak tire. More emphasis on crosswind training could help. Our crew had just come off from a continuous duty overnight with approximately 5-6 hours at the hotel the previous night. My judgement (possibly his too!) may have been dulled due to tiredness and fatigue. Solution: eliminate reduced rest trip sequences.

Title: ACR LTT LOST TIRE ON LNDG PROC XWIND LNDG.

Narrative: I WAS CONDUCTING INITIAL OPERATING EXPERIENCE WITH A NEW FO. IT WAS HIS SECOND FLT IN REVENUE OPS WITH A STRONG L XWIND ON APCH TO RWY 6 AT BDL. HE WAS FLYING THE ACFT AND DURING LNDG (AFTER A SLIGHT BOUNCE AND TOUCHDOWN WITH A SIDE LOAD) THE R MAIN TIRE HAD ROLLED OFF THE RIM AND W ASSUMED THAT A BLOW-OUT HAD OCCURRED. I TAXIED THE ACFT (SHORT SD3-60/300) OFF RWY 6 ONTO TXWY 'K' BTWN RWY 6 AND TXWY CHARLIE (C). THE ACFT WAS SECURED AT THIS POINT AND 8 PAX WERE BUSSED FROM THE ACFT TO THE TERMINAL BUILDING. NO ACCIDENT SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE OR INJURY RESULTED. THE RWY (6) AND TXWY (C) REMAINED OPEN. I BELIEVE THE PROB WAS CAUSED BY INADEQUATE XWIND CORRECTION ON THE FO'S BEHALF AND POSSIBLY A WEAK TIRE. MORE EMPHASIS ON XWIND TRAINING COULD HELP. OUR CREW HAD JUST COME OFF FROM A CONTINUOUS DUTY OVERNIGHT WITH APPROX 5-6 HRS AT THE HOTEL THE PREVIOUS NIGHT. MY JUDGEMENT (POSSIBLY HIS TOO!) MAY HAVE BEEN DULLED DUE TO TIREDNESS AND FATIGUE. SOLUTION: ELIMINATE REDUCED REST TRIP SEQUENCES.
