On 10 April 1963, USS THRESHER suffered flooding while on sea trials off the east coast of the US. She sank in water more than 8000 feet deep resulting in the loss of 129 officers, crew, and civilians.
In the video linked below the captain decided to return to the airport he just left rather than continuing to the destination after a blown tire during takeoff. Is it safe to assume factors that cannot be known from the audio are influencing the decision? For example the captain or FO had the discussion with corporate.
Yes, I realize the video is not actually associated with the ATC audio recording.
