Excellent flying and a credit to our services that they were able to successfully recover the aircraft. To be fair, although the F111 is dated, like all aircraft, it is only as old as it's last service, all parts of the airframe have a service life and are regularly inspected and replaced or repaired if necessary. If I had to put money on the cause of the wheel failure it would most likely be on human error, something not tightened or locked at the last service.
