Again, my point was to use reverse however you like but the guys that left us in the back sweating weren’t doing so for fuel savings.

Also, as stated, if you use auto brakes at all the stopping distance is the same with full reverse or idle.

I guess not....
Read the shutdown part again. It does the same thing.
He’s confused about BATTERY power.
You can turn the bleed off and shut the master off before 2 mins...all day every day...

What is “saving the brakes”?

I prefer you save my engines... Think about that when you are doing a red eye jungle turn.

They are “my” engines while doing a toga take off in a 321 at 2am from SJO with 220 passengers. But I’m glad you save the brakes on a 13,000 foot runway.

So much aviating. So much assuming. So much everything I can never hope to achieve.

I yield to your leadership.

And I was wrong. The engines belong to Wells Fargo.

It means not heating them up or else people get on here and complain about hot brakes.

Please tell me how not using full reverse on landing saves your engines.
