American 767 RTO at ORD

[Cptnchia]

Every Boeing and MD I've flown, manual braking is stronger than RTO brakes.

757's and 767's were designed with autobrakes and an RTO setting.

South 75's have it, North 75's do not. Which is odd.

Thank you for the information. Indeed very interesting. Is that something with the newer models of aircraft, or is it something standard or retrofitted to older types like MD80, etc?

Seems like all of the jets I've flown.

The only difference between MAX MED and LO on the Airbus is the delay in applying the brakes.

MAX for TO. LO for normal use. MED for the "Well, when you run off the end of the runway, the NTSB is going to wonder "why" you weren't using MED brakes"

Because NATCO didn't have it

We had SOPA we had SMAC and no one cared that I wore a Northface jacket and had epaulets so old, they were grey!

Don't forget "Feltch me down."

Rather have SOPA SMAC than "One place, right place"

What we have now works fine with me. No need to reinvent the wheel.

North and south?

You don't remember?

FLCH button on the ER. Several of our northern brothers pronounced it "felch."

Same as the Citations. I always winced when people said that...

That's not the first time I've hard something like that about the 757. Apparently, AA hated the 757s they picked up from TWA because they had some significant cockpit differences from their own(and some truly heinous leases because of TW's terrible credit rating). Coincidentally, most of them ultimately ended up with Delta.

Nah, I was emoting my reaction when I was asked to "felch" by the captain and I had never heard FL CH referred to as that.

Ummm I think you need to return the books sir.

 

[derg]

Are you sure?

It's a delay and the rate of deceleration itself is higher for MED versus LO. I think that's what he was trying to get but in a smartass way.

 

[Nark]

Are you sure?

Mostly.
LO brakes are applied 4s after touchdown* and decelerate at 1.7m/sec
MED brakes are applied after 2s at a rate of 3m/sec

Only felt MAX in the sim, and I hope you aren't taking a sip of coffee.



* when spoiler are activated, all things being equal, at touchdown.
