The brake is attached to the rim, not the tire!

So the tyre can slip (very rare) or the tyre can skid - anti skid will assist here if not effected by excessive heat.


Now is this with cold brakes or hot ones?

I can work out what "x" weight aircraft will need for braking distance on "un-used " or first brake application, possibly a 0 temp indication.

But at a 2 indication, how does that effect my brake performance at MTO? or shall I wait for a zero reading before takeoff?


P.S. the tires will be pre heated by riding brakes of a extended period.
