Was it safer to land in Denver than at the original destination?
Well it probably made no difference as long as there was no fire in the wheel well.
Git ‘er Done.
The rear landing gear have plenty-o-tires-and-brakes.
Likely some spare planes @ Denver. Likely repair mechanics and spare hanger slots
I did once see a brake rebuild on a plane at a gateway while we could watch.
I boarded. “It’s only the brakes”
