Answer:
The tyres of aircrafts are highly charged during landing to friction between the tyres and the airstrip. If the tyres are slightly conducting, the charge will not accumulate on them and will leak to the earth.
This is the reason why special tyres of aircraft are made slightly conducting as ordinary rubber is an insulator.
