No skulk off needed nor tail between legs - this is Tech Log where we share experiences and thoughts and learn from the process. Sometimes we get it right first off and sometimes we get to learn more about it. Thanks for your input. Couple of things (1) am I now right in reading that the NGs don’t have carbon brakes yet? (2) since engineers are experienced and clever people, if they thought that the brakes were carbon then is it that carbon brakes are that close to steel in appearance?
BTW if you want to know how carbon brakes really work (don’t use the PPRUNE search engine because it dies earlier than 2006, go to: http://www.geocities.com/profemery/a...on_brakes.html
