Typically alternate pucks in the calipers will be powered by

So setting the parking brake in a large aircraft has some of the same
disadvantages as in a small aircraft, if hydraulic pressure is being
maintained.

Did you retrack the gear into the wheel-wells with elevated
temperatures? That could be a major fire hazard.


Unfortunately, yes. I only found out that the brakes were very hot by
accident, and I was well into my departure by then.



into your departure?
