Brake Temp Warning

[batchelork 0]

Shortly after take-off I notice that a warning message "Brake Temp" appears. If I bring up the EICAS panel, several wheels have a brake temperature of '9'. This has happened on several flights. I did a search but nothing showed up. Anyone got any ideas please?

this is really well documented in real ops.just after take off just let the gear down for at least 15 minutes and you ll see temp and message dropping ...!!!i suggest you to be more easy on brake pedals on taxying.phil

Thanks phil I will have a look for more information. I would have thought that after flying at 30,000' for a couple of hours they would have cooled off.CheersKeith

the system allow you to let down the gear with some limitations like 270 k and/or .82 ....there is a chart and the mini time is 8 min ... there is somewhere a inflight cooling chart ...!!! i ve always used 15 minutes and seems the system accept it. a flight with hours of gear down is very hard on fuel planning side ...

I think I have found the cause - it turns out tha my brake pedals were never 'fully' releasing. If I press hard with my heels they come of and the brake temp warning has disappeard. Many thanks to everybody who tried to help me. Now just need to find out why my CH pedals are not fully releasing.
