With many pilots, light, medium or heavily mounted, one would just be preaching to the choir on this. However, looking at the two threads below, one can't help but be stunned that there are so many pilots out there who just aren't aware of this stopping enhancement technique.
The other day I was talking to an old mate about it and he freely said that he'd gone his whole thirty plus year career without ever thinking about it, let alone trying it. He started off on the Electra and then the 707. He's now flying a Challenger and he says that he can't see anything in the technique that goes against what both Boeing and Airbus are saying about the importance, for stopping, of getting the weight off the wings and onto the wheels.
I wonder how many have just blatted off the end in total ignorance? It would make a very interesting staistic. Now wait and see if the lawyers get hold of it....
