QA - most fast jet a/c have an "anti-skid" system of some kind or another. The main drama with it compared to your common garden ABS is that braking is only being applied to two wheels, thus the ABS sensor system only has two wheels to compare. Thus if you have a snag with it it can lead to you getting no braking at all!
