  6. Hands, Mind, and Heart

    Wheel brakes. Toe brakes are the norm in production airplanes and many homebuilts, but some airplanes have heel brakes. Check the location relative to your normal foot position. Can you operate the rudder pedals and both brakes easily? A few homebuilts have a hand brake that operates both main-wheel brakes at the same time. Is it easily accessible?

  7. Your Brake Installation

    3. Remove the protective rubber cap at one of the wheel brake cylinder units and open the brake valve by backing off the small protruding center portion about half a turn with a 1/4" wrench. 4. Press the free end of the plastic tube (connected to a pressure pot containing hydraulic fluid) over the protruding valve nub.

  11. Brake Tech for Builders

    Grove publishes a simple equation, kinetic energy = (0.044 x W x V 2)/N, where W is the landing weight in pounds, V is the beginning-to-brake velocity in knots, and N is the number of wheels with brakes. So for an airplane weighing 2350 pounds that starts braking at 60 knots we get: K= (0.044 x 2350 x 3600)/2, or 186,120 foot-pounds.

  14. Brakes & Gears

    There are a few things you should consider when choosing the best brake and landing gear system for your general aviation plane. First, consider the size and weight of your plane. The larger and heavier your plane is, the more powerful your brakes and landing gear will need to be. Second, consider the number of wheels your plane has.

  15. Aircraft Braking Systems

    This toe-brake configuration is widely used and allows the pilot to apply differential braking by varying the pressure applied on each toe brake. Many smaller light sport aircraft do not make use of toe brakes, preferring to use a simpler single lever mechanism. This lever is usually situated in the cockpit centre console and applies equal ...
