A320/1 Brake temps on 34R are a real issue at heavy weights or strong northerly winds.

the problem is, if you follow the Airbus recommendation and accelerate to 30 kts, then brake to 10, you will hit your brake temp limit, guaranteed.

I find only allowing the bus to go to 20 kts, then slowing her down to a couple of knots prevents this as brake energy absorption is exponential the faster you go.
