摘要:
The invention relates to a method of managing the braking of an aircraft having landing gear with wheels fitted with friction brakes and with auxiliary brakes that enable energy to be dissipated by means other than friction, the method comprising the steps of: when braking is requested, testing the braking parameters to determine whether the aircraft is in a braking situation for which the friction brakes are not essential for providing the requested braking; and performing the requested braking by giving priority to actuating the auxiliary brakes so long as the aircraft remains within said braking situation, and actuating the friction brakes only if the aircraft departs from said braking situation.
摘要:
A method of managing a ground connection of an aircraft having landing gear with wheels that are subjected to static loads, some of which wheels are fitted with respective braking devices and others are fitted with respective independent drive devices, the method including the step of causing a modification to a distribution of the static loading to which the wheels of the landing gear are subjected in such a manner as to: increase the loading on at least some wheels fitted with respective braking devices, during a braking stage; and increase the loading on at least some wheels fitted with respective independent drive devices, during an independent drive stage.
