Title: Re: This one is an interesting Crash Post by: AEROVISHWA on June 07, 2012, 05:19:57 PM he just slammed the brakes too hard...!!
Title: Re: This one is an interesting Crash Post by: Sandeeppande on June 07, 2012, 05:26:07 PM Yes, agree. brakes were applied too hard at a relatively higher speed due to which this happened. In other words, the axial momentum translated into rotary motion as application of brakes created an axis like situation.
This is what i think would have happened. Thanks Title: Re: This one is an interesting Crash Post by: amit_delhi on June 07, 2012, 05:41:11 PM Cant they have some kind of mechanism which co relates speed on ground and brakes, so both these functions works in tandem .... :headscratch: like if ground speed is more than Xmkph braking force will be Y (whatever unit)...
Title: Re: This one is an interesting Crash Post by: rcpilotacro on June 07, 2012, 06:17:34 PM they do have, even in very cheap aeroplanes like the cessna has this it is called Maxaret Unit, a mechanical unit, modern ones are computer controlled but still retained the name, here read on
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxaret Title: Re: This one is an interesting Crash Post by: amit_delhi on June 07, 2012, 07:07:17 PM Got it Gusty Sir ...Non-Skid Braking ...found this useful pdf file with diagram of the Maxaret mechanism http://www.flightglobal.com/pdfarchive/view/1953/1953%20-%201433.html
Can anyone identify the plane is the video...and whether that model has Non-Skid Braking (Maxaret) or not? |
