Breaking vs braking

Hi
You got it Mate ( lightning),
If you want to finish your linecheck with a bang, tail stike or not, demontrate your skills to your f/o and the lineckr. And voila , you are breaking new ground in the training department. Or not.....?
With regarde to milatary aviation I know nil so I see the point of draging up. ( still not aerodynamic brkn!)
Usefull if you have no brakes, wich I did not have on a regulare bases flying in Ontario in a vee little Cessna 185 on ski and floats...... RTOW and LDA etc was ..... Up to you and your ac.

Lastly as to why we are having this discussion, ?
Live and learn, in the 1980s we did not have internet accses, on pprune, so I read all the reports that Transport Canada published.,with special curiousity about what NOT to do with a Cessna.Useful, still alive!
Back to the future, Boeing and Airbus specificaly states : Dont think about it!
Grounded 27 , we need to go flying together one day!!?
Cheers
Blusdup and out!
