One of their easier jobs in that area. :E

Curious query; can you lock/brake the wheels on a wheeled helicopter?
|
Yes you can. Either a system that locks the footbrake pressure or a separate hydraulic source operated by a handle.
Without brakes it would be very difficult positioning the helicopter on an apron to load/offload passengers. |
Some folks land to a elevated pad/pinnacle with the brakes pre-set and others like myself, just prefer to stand on them to ensure we're not rolling anywhere !
