If the RPA detects a flat tire on one of the rear wheels, the electronic height control will actively reduce the load on the wheel concerned. The body will then assume a slightly inclined attitude. As soon as the flat tire has been repaired and the RPA reinitialized, the inclined attitude will be levelled out again. No work is needed on the air suspension itself.
