Qick turn around limitation could be considered on those airplanes without brake temperature indication,
If landing conditions leads to high GS on short runways, next OTOW might be limited by brake energy if a minimum turn around time is not spent and OAT is higher than a critical point upon landing.
for MD 80 series a minimum time of 25 minutes is considered.
Example.
LEMD, 2000 elevation, OAT 40C, critical temperature 19C, 10kt tailwind, 10000 TORA.
next takeoff weight will be reduce in 4200 lbs cause of this restriction if turn around is less than 25 minutes (almost impossible to make it).
