A Southwest Airlines Boeing 737-700, registration N428WN performing flight WN-528 from Baltimore,MD to Fort Lauderdale,FL (USA) with 143 passengers, departed Baltimore's runway 28 and was climbing out of Baltimore. The next departure about a minute later reported upon contacting departure that they saw rubber debris on and near the end of the runway. The Southwest Boeing 737 stopped their climb at 10,000 feet, burned off fuel for about one hour and returned to Baltimore for a safe landing on runway 28 about 80 minutes after departure. The aircraft came to a stop with both right hand main tyres deflated and torn. The aircraft was towed off the runway.
