Tire Pressure & Brake Temp

Recommended Posts

Occasionally on take off I get a tire pressure and/or a brake temp warning. Am I doing something wrong? How do I correct this?

Thanks.........Steff

Yes and no. Your hardware is not properly configured so the brakes are "dragging."

As Kyle say and/or maybe you are using the brakes too much on taxiing to the runway.

A captain on a A380, said recently, where possible he limits the use of the brakes due to high temp build up. He also says a sharp braking action is better than a gradual 'riding' the brake action, as the riding action builds up temps very quick.
