Concorde had a nosewheel disc brake though, not a snubber...

Concorde also had a system whereby you couldn't apply the brakes until the nosewheel had spun up, even if you touched down with full pressure on the footbrakes.

Shame Airbus didn't think of that.... (referring to the thread about A320 landing with park brake on...)

On second thought I don't have the technical knowledge to get into a discussion like this. I'll just put it on the table and run...

sound of footsteps fading into distance...
