Abstract
THE Goodyear Antiskid System on the Hawk Aircraft provides indidividual brake control referred to as ‘On‐Off’ control as opposed to adaptive control. ‘On‐Off’ control removes all brake pressure when an incipient skid is detected and re‐applies pressure at a controlled rate to the pilot metered level when the skid condition has been corrected. This type of brake control is very cost effective and yet provides tyre protection, prevents loss of control due to locked wheels and with pilot participation, will provide safe stopping distances under the most severe runway conditions.
