Contexto
Aircraft that are equipped with anti-skid systems normally are also equipped with a system that allows the aircraft wheel to accelerate to the aircraft speed completely after touchdown before allowing the anti-skid system to apply maximum braking effort. This also prevents the pilot from inadvertently applying brake pressure before landing which may result in blown tires.
