Title: Re: Brake Temperature
Post by DAL191 on Sep 12th, 2011 at 1:35pm

I tried a test flight with maximum payload and about 13500 lbs of fuel to replicate the landing condition of 752 after a flight. I set the autobrakes to MAX, flaps at 20, spoilers armed, no reverse thrust, and landed. Essentially it put a tremendous load on the brakes. The temperaure was 8. I guess at 75-80% payload, 25 flaps, reverse thrust, and autobrakes at 2 the brakes did not work hard enough to register on the scale wims mentioned.

It would be nice if if the autobrakes temperature was mentioned in the manual. With no mention I didn't know whether to look for the real temperature or a scale. I have planes that do one or the other.
Thank you
Michael Cubine
