Good british design 146 brakes!

I must say that every time Lufthansa land they lock up their brakes and come to a standstill halfway down the runway (good on 10, not so good on 28) and still manage an expeditious backtrack 30 minutes later (in fact on two occasions, they have used so much power pulling onto the runway at 'C' that they have blown stairs away from a/c parked on stand 2/3 - but that's another story)

I appologise to all BA crews, I love you all If it weren't for you my job would be too straight forward and boring

Pointer: just practice your rudder hardover recovery skills. Don't forget, not everyone builds aircraft like the Dutch or British (ones which last for years). Maybe when we get the Scarebus you can get a job with a posh airline flying big planes into city
