Brake temperature is only critical just after landing. That's why the wheels hubs on a Concorde are equipped with fans that run during ground stops. Not exactly a short hop aircraft. From my B-707 Flight Manual: MAXIMUM LGW FOR SHORT TRANSITS Takeoff must not be scheduled less than 40 mimutes after any landing in which the gross weights and operating conditions critical for wheel fusible plug melting energy levels have been exceeded. Well, the 707 is a pre-historic aircraft, and wheel fusible plug melting energy levels are usually not exceeded during a landing. -- _/_/_/ -=jh=-
