Had a hot brake in Leipzig a few years ago, >700 C. Firemen showed up with great big cooling fan and also stood by with fire hose just in case it caught fire,
No great drama except they would not let the steps come to the aircraft, so if we needed to get off quick we would have had to use a slide. (A300 Freighter, 3 crew only)
