- Nota adicional1
- Since autobrakes come on as soon as the thrust levers come to idle, autobrakes typically give a 1-2 second earlier brake application than manual braking. The autobrake system also applies more consistent braking force. The negative side of autobrakes is that they can be inadvertently disengaged resulting in no braking force being applied for a few seconds until the crew notices it. Maximum stopping margin is achieved if pilots let the autobrake system bring the airplane to a complete stop.
