Hi all,
There are brush alternator and brushless alternator
But since brushless alternator has more advantage than brush alternator
( no wear brush)
why we still use brush alternator in some aircraft
why we dont use brushless alternator?

I suspect it's because brushless generally costs more and weighs more for a given capacity.
