Various companies = various SOP's, if any. I've heard of a blanket rule that a/c stopped = Pk Bk ON. I once was told by TC from a national major, (no SOP) that IHO setting Pk Bk ON on the runway was not a good idea in case it stuck on. Wow, I thought, you could 'burn out' thinking of all the trivia that could go wrong, but never has. Idle thrust on a big light a/c will roll you along quite softly if you become distracted.
I suspect 10 CP's 10 opinions.
