Brake performance question?
I have had the same 337 for over 25 years, and all that time the brakes barely hold past about 50 percent takeoff power. It starts creeping along, Normal?
I just had both brake cylinders and calipers redone / overhauled, and the same.
Mechanic was freaked out that he couldn't hold the airplane at takeoff power, but I told him its always been that way and not to worry.
Do you use metallic or organic pads?
Preferences?
Thoughts?
