Re: Pulling a Stop to Runway Overruns

Do the advocates of this technique have any numbers to support their claims? By how much is the brake efficiency increased? Is it 10%, 20% or 0%? Or is it more a feeling that it works?

If there is any data that supports this technique, I would be very interested to see it.

On my own type the reference speed for the anti-skid system is coming from the nosewheels. I would very much like to know what effect reducing the weight on the nosewheels would have on the effectiveness of the anti-skid, before applying such a technique.

Perhaps Dagger Dirk or OVERTALK could comment?
