At Chicago O'Hare International Airport, a tire failure during the takeoff roll of United Airlines Flight 455 tested the quiet architecture of aviation safety — and the architecture held. Pilots aborted the departure, passengers deplaned on the runway, and no one was harmed. The incident is a reminder that the most important stories in aviation are often the ones where catastrophe was possible but did not arrive, because the systems designed to prevent it did exactly what they were built to do.
