No manufacturer recommends aero-braking for a reason.
Yes a tail strike. But brakes, spoilers, managed reverse thrust and the full drag of an aircraft in a high AOA skillfull rollout??? I do not question manufacturer or airline policy. It is doubtfull I would hear any modern pilot admit this but I have been in and seen this done with great effect from my simple perspective. I suppose then it is a theoretical issue I question?

So I ask in theory, what do you all think?

Thank you vilas for your 74c input.
