atpcliff :The brakes on the 747-8 are completely different than all the other 747 brakes.
Sorry,what is the difference? Both of them multiple-disc carbon brakes. 747- Rotor and stator discs are made of carbon. 748- The multiple-disc carbon brakes. The carbon steel brake cables with a top layer of tin-coated zinc decrease friction and simplify maintenance.
