What about increased weight causing increased inertia to be dissipated
for a residual constant max brake parts efficiency ?
Or are you chaps just talking about normal landing weight after a long
flight and dumping the lift ? I believe glider type airbrakes would provide
better lift dumping than spoilers. This is true in gliders, so why not big
jobs ! I found retracting the flaps on power planes effective as well, though
less than airbrakes on a glider.
I guess that runway length covers a lot of shortcomings in this
department !
