Talking about brake fans:
Did you guys notice that on the NEO, they removed the recommendations to delay the use of brake fans selection to 5 min after landing.

Now it’s written:
Brake fans selection may be performed once the aircraft has cleared the runway.
Reason for change:
Removal of the recommendation to delay the selection of the brake fans. Delaying selection of the brake fans after landing has not proved to efficiently prevent brake oxidation. Furthermore, the removal of this recommendation provides flexibility for the flight crew to manage brake temperature.
This is from FCOM-PRO-NOR-SOP-AFTER LANDING.

But only applicable to the NEOs... But I’m pretty sure it’s the exact same brakes as the CEOs.
I noticed the NEOs FCOM has some little extra notes that the CEOs don’t have.
Like the RCDR GND CTL pb-sw that revert to AUTO in the case of electrical transient between EXT PWR and APU GEN is applicable to CEOs and NEOs but on the CEOs FCOM no mention about it.
