Correct autobrake functionality

Recommended Posts

Does anyone know how the autobrake switch works in the real plane?

Does it have a solenoid to kick the switch back to off, when speed reaches below 20 knots?

 

Or am I just dreaming?

The section halfway down here reveals all. The site as a whole is a treasure trove of information.

Yes, thats a good webpage for sure. The operation is well explained, but it doesnt tell if the switch must be manually moved to Off after autobrake cansellation, or if it goes to off automatically. Never been able to figure it out. And of course, the few times I have been on a jumpseat, I forgot to look for it, hehe.

It can be disarmed by the pedals or the switch, but the switch won't move by itself in any case. It's not like the start switch.
