Seven full applications is what we mechanics are told. It's also the average needed when we want to remove the pressure from the accu through the pedals for servicing. (If you're a 767 pilot, press reserve brakes till the accu is fully charged, release the switch and all hydr systems off. Now count the amount of pedal pushes till you hit the red band on the brake press gauge, which is the residual air pressure). Place chocks first
Also, on the answer above, antiskid normally doesn't function in this emergency I think (can be I mess up with Airbus now though...)
