I never understood the FAA's hydroplaning formula. It doesn't take into account the depth of contaminant, runway design, aircraft weight, tire width or distance between them on the gear assy, tire tread (or lack thereof)...
If TP is the only factor in hydroplaning, bald tires would be fine on your car as long as they're pumped up really good...
