The airport outside of Tokyo was closed Monday, 17 July 2016, after a Hawaiian Airlines Airbus A330 passenger jet punctured all 8 of its tires during an emergency landing after a cockpit display indicated a hydraulic failure.  None of the 293 passengers or crew on board were injured.  The plane remained on the runway while workers replaced the tires.
