--.. 54 Posted August 3, 2017 So, there are no autobrakes on the CRJ700/900. But I have the feeling, that after touchdown the plane doesnt really slows down that much with reverse and spoilers only. When do real pilots use the breakes? Probably not at 60 knots. Can the brakes be used immediately after touchdown or would that overheat the brakes? I hope my question is understandable Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hans Hartmann [OLD] 1419 Posted August 3, 2017 from my experience as a passenger, they use them as soon as the nose wheel touches the ground. In Munich the Lufthansa aircraft usually brake pretty hard to slow down fast enough to catch the exit to the apron at Terminal 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JRBarrett 197 Posted August 3, 2017 From my experience as a passenger on numerous CRJ 700 and 900 flights, the pilots get on the brakes early and "decisively". CRJ brakes are very rugged and built for many landing cycles per day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
