A computer-implemented method that includes receiving information 202, indicative of an aircraft steering angle of an aircraft (3, figure 3), comparing the received information against a threshold above which degradation of a tire of a landing gear of the aircraft is expected to occur 204,206, and causing an action to be performed based on a result of the comparison 208. The information indicative of the steering angle comprises information indicative of the taxiing route for the aircraft. The information indicative of the aircraft steering angle comprises a rate of change of the steering angle. When the steering angle is within a predetermined range an action is performed. Such action comprises an indication to be output on a display in the cockpit of the aircraft.
