Very few guys I fly with use low auto brakes arbitrarily; real world flying education comes in. Just like we aren’t always vectored to 2000’ AFL at 180kts for optimized energy. Training techniques are great; but the planes don’t have a “brake temp reset” button like the sim does.
Don’t shoot the messenger. I was told it’s going to become an emphasis item on line checks. Also they are no longer teaching the whole optimized profile thing.
