How would you like to see our aircraft engineering operations? It was the question that started it all.
Yes Please! was my response. And that's how I found myself at Dublin Airport with the crew from BOSA as they changed a wheel on the TUI Boeing 737.

How to Change a Wheel on a Boeing 737 is the first of a series of behind the scenes videos I filmed at Dublin Airport in conjunction with BOSA Aero. In this video we do exactly what it says on the can - we change a faulty wheel on a TUI 737 so it can get back to doing what it does best - flying!

This one is for the avgeeks, those who just want to know how stuff works and anybody interested in a career in aircraft engineering and maintenance.

I hope you enjoy it.
