Didnt leave a surface; glad they got it stopped on pavement with the no damage. Look forward to learning from whatever they had to handle, no injuries. Good work.

Looking like a case of zero brake pressure after a normal touchdown during rollout... full reverse to the overrun.

Can we change the title of this post? Right after seeing the real off-roading the Airbus did in Vilnius this isn't off-roading, it's stopping just over the white line at a traffic light.

eAML write up in SAFE is interesting. Good job by the pilots.

They were lucky they weren't landing in LGA. After looking at the info in SAFE all I can say is yikes.

Not a 737 guy, nor trying to throw stones, rather learn and adapt.

Is the brake pressure something you can see/check at 500ft stable call and GA and try some checklist or longer runway if no pressure? I might start doing that now.

Would anyone advocate for use of parking brakes sub 40kts? Or have a guess on a recommend speed to deploy? Is popping tires better than going to overun(unless water obviously)? Or do popped tires dragging on metal have less friction than rolling tires/no brakes?

Two brake systems, Normal and Alternate. Three pressures sources, A, B and Accumulator. Anti-skid systems are independent wheel and wheel pairs after a failure. The eAML entry is a little vague. Parking brake can be set with any one of the above systems, so long as there is pressure and requires toe-brake pressure.

Since no one got hurt and other than trashed engines, the airplane can be used again, we won't hear much more about it.
