Re-read what I wrote. It is bullcrap that we will have to set the brakes while putting in the numbers. I don't mind putting in the numbers on the fly.. it takes 30 seconds. What I do mind is setting the brakes and clogging up ramps to do so.
I can only imagine the chaos on ramps 2 and 3 during the 0900 push as 100 airplanes push back and then subsequently set their brakes to put in their numbers.
