What needs to be considered when changing a tire during boarding/deboarding?
I have never seen an airline (or the military) have a maintenance procedure where a tire can be changed with pax on board the aircraft. Normally, if the problem is found when pax are on the aircraft, they are asked to deplane, the maintenance is done and the pax are then boarded once more. The biggest reason is that pax moving inside the aircraft can cause the aircraft to move and the jack to tilt and cause the landing gear to hit the ground. Without a tire, that could be really bad news.
