411A:
"Lets face facts here.
NOTHING stops an aeroplane like BRAKES, not reverse, not spoilers.
Close throttles, and at the same time, apply MAXIMUM braking force...all other actions are secondary.
Been this way for a long time...and not likely to change, younger guys notwithstanding."
Edited
BRAKES & Flt/Gnd Spoilers - it's the exact reason that most training manuals suggest that the spoilers are the one single item that the NFP backs the FP up on during an RTO.
You pay a heavey penalty just without the auto activation of the speed brake - this is nothing compared to what you suggest - just putting brakes on and forgetting the rest. Edited
