Alaska Airlines Repairs Embraer E175 After Tire Blows Out And Damages Electrical Equipment In Eugene, Oregon

Passengers onboard a recent Alaska Airlines flight were treated to a go-around after the crew noted an unsafe gear indication. The flight, operating as AS3352 by Skywest Airlines, had departed from Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) and was en route to Eugene, Oregon (EUG). The aircraft, an Embraer ERJ-175, had descended through the clouds to 1,300 feet mean sea level when the pilot decided to initiate the go-around due to an unsafe gear indication, and the other crew onboard worked through other safety checklists. On approach, all passengers were told to brace for landing and were able to arrive on the ground, unharmed, 20 minutes later.
