Type 2 activates after 2 seconds delay as against 4 seconds in type 1 also deceleration rate is 2m/sec•2 instead 1.7m/sec*2 resulting in LDR reduction upto 450mtrs. With the rise of fuel saving tactics with increased use of Flap3 landings, it prevents resorting to sometimes eventual manual braking which results in higher brake temperatures and brake wear.
