Orange County John Wayne Airport Fire

A tire on a private jet caught fire on Monday, closing the main runway at Orange County's John Wayne Airport. The Hawker 800 XP aborted takeoff when the tire under the left wing caught fire. The six passengers and two crew members successfully evacuated the small business jet and airport fire fighting equipment extinguished the flames.
