He's still my favorite aviation authority no matter how much he rehearses before his 'takes' and of course its his business how he runs his show, not mine.

Something to consider. As an aircraft mechanic I have observed this sequence several times. Aircraft taxies to the GA ramp. Sets the parking brake. Locks the airplane and leaves. Several hours later the line crew has to relocate that aircraft. They hook up and as the they are able to move the aircraft they start the tow. Soon they notice that the tug is slowing down and very soon after they realize that the brakes are set. That is when I get a call! If we can’t get in touch with the owner and the aircraft is on a taxi way I release the brakes by loosening a bleeder on each mlg enough to release the brake. What happens is the brakes were hot when the parking brake was set. The were cold when the tow was started. However, dragging brakes rapidly heat up and expand. Dragging brakes now become locked brakes. Citation multi disc brakes will do the same thing. If the pilot set the parking brake to prevent the aircraft from rolling at idle and no more than that we have the same problem. Those big engines will move the aircraft into position for takeoff however, as the roll begins the brakes very rapidly heat up and soon they are locked. I believe this parking brake was set. The amount of braking is determined by the amount of peddle pressure applied when setting the parking brake. It is just a valve that closes off the fluid to the mlg brake caliper. The only way for that fluid to return is by opening the parking brake valve.

This exact sort of parking brake is offered in the aftermarket to - of all things - kit car builders. Often times, there is no way to have a proper emergency brake, so the existing calibers do double duty. Just like in the aircraft, the pedal is depressed and then the valve is shut, holding that pressure in the lines and caliper. So in the plane, the pressure is totally dependent upon how hard the pilot presses the pedals when the button is pushed, so the parking brakes can absolutely end up with anything between zero and 100%.

Why is there a "partial parking brake" selection? The Europeans have noted several accidents with these types of aircraft whereby the parking brake was either not releasing or residual pressure in the system applying the brakes, as Juan suggested. A simple electrical circuit on the wheels should be installed to monitor actual wheel speed vs. ground speed, wheel slippage could then be calculated.

Disclaimer: experience from auto hydraulics may not apply here, but maybe? There is a condition where a hydraulic master cylinder does not quite return fully, which it needs to do, to open the system to reservoir(=atmospheric) pressure and equalise. Although there is little or no system pressure at the time, the system is closed and any expansion (due to heat in the wheels?) can cause pressure to rise and brakes to drag increasingly with time. In extreme cases, they can lock on. In cars and motorcycle hydraulics, the solutions are 1) make sure the master cylinder piston physically returns *fully*. If the lever is adjusted wrongly, this can't happen reliably. And it's not enough to only check for no system pressure. 2) make sure the control lever is operated fully off each time, with no exceptions.

So our procedure was to release the parking brake on taxi, check brakes for rolling and stopping while taxing on both sides (left and right) and never touch parking brake handle again. I ‘believe’ a partial engagement is possible and the activation of anti-skid is also possible with brakes heating and locking while aircraft is rolling and the system would not know of a ‘partial engagement’……
@peterstickney76082 жыл бұрын
Some quick thoughts - If the parking brake isn't fully released - the system partially pressurized, then the wheels will roll, with some drag, until some of the weight on the wheels is relieved as the wing starts to lift - at which point, the wheels would lock, as the friction of the brakes exceeds that of the wheels on the runway. At that point, the antiskid would detect the lockup and relieve the pressure, then the brakes would lock again as the antiskid cycles. Other thought - since the parking brake valve is holding the pressure released into the system by activating the toe brakes, if the toe brakes are only partially applied, then it's possible to have a partial application of the brake that isn't enough to stop the airplane, but will hold it back. From teh system diagram, the parking brake valves are check valves - one-way valves - they'll hold the brake pressure at a certain level, but will permit additional pressure to be added by normal brake application, but not released.

@blancolirio you're missing a critical point: the parking brake valve only traps the pressure applied when it is set. It's entirely possible to depress the brake only very lightly when setting the parking brake. The drag may not be immediately evident to the pilot on the next taxi to the runway but it would be more than enough to heat up the carbon brakes on the takeoff roll.
@samblue5741 Жыл бұрын
Correct. It is also likely that if you're just using the P brake to stop it from rolling to grab a clearance or something you would not push hard on the brakes before trapping pressure with the P Brake, just enough to stop idle thrust from rolling it. Also, carbon brakes get better with heat which increases the problem on ground roll. Lastly, at fwd CG limits It feels to me that there is not a lot of "extra" elevator authority to rotate around Vr speeds, I don't feel like it would take much brake drag to cause "no rotation". Cessna should add something to trigger the "NO TAKEOFF" light if there is any trapped pressure in the system.

While I don't have aircraft experience, I have extensive automotive and industrial experience. The diagram is more of a theory of operation rather than exact schematic however there is enough detail to sus out operation. Working the system from top down. Dotted black lines are electrical connections Purple lines are hydraulic system returns ( from the basic diagram it appears that when the toe brakes are depressed, this bleeds pressure from the control side of the Power Brake Valve. The output of the PBV is what applies the brakes. This is a fail safe, if a toe brake valve leaks the brakes apply rather than not being operational. ) Green lines are returns to the supply reservoir . Red lines are what applies the brake calipers. Blue lines are the emergency braking system. Working the system from bottom up Shuttle valves at wheels. This selects between the service braking system and the emergency braking system. This is basally 2 check valves per wheel that automatically select between the two. If the emergency braking system is applied, the rest of the system has no effect, the brakes remain applied. Parking brake check valves. When the parking brake lever is in the OFF position, fluid can flow in both directions. When the parking brake lever is in the ON position, fluid can flow to the wheel brakes through the check valve but not away from the wheel brakes. This means that the pilot can move the parking brake lever to ON then push the foot pedals in order to set the parking brake. If the parking brake lever is set to ON and no other action taken, the aircraft will still be free to roll. Anti skid servo valve. This is what bleeds pressure from the red lines in order to release the brake caliper preventing the wheel from skidding. From the diagram, it DOES NOT have the capability to apply the brakes. Power brake valve This directs hydraulic pressure to the rest of the system when the toe brake pedals are depressed. The system is set up so a pressure reduction in the purple lines causes the valve to move allowing pressure to flow from the accumulator to the rest of the braking system. Accumulator / hydraulic pump This is where the system gets operational pressure. This system acts more like air brakes on a large truck than hydraulic brakes on a car. Toe brake pedals This bleeds pressure from the Power brake valve to the reservoir to allow the service brakes to apply. Weight on wheels switch ( not shown ) Juan replied that this arms the anti skid system when the aircraft is on the ground.

Part 2 So, if the parking brake lever is in the ON position, the brakes can be applied through the service brake system but the brakes will not release. This means that the anti skid system has no effect in reducing braking pressure. The light / dark skid marks may be from the brakes overheating and developing uneven braking forces as the brake rotor warps. Another possibility is the runway has differing friction coefficients / surface texture causing the skid to change. If the skid marks were from the anti skid system and the pilot was using the toe brakes, I wonder if he was trying to stop but forgot to cut engine power If a toe brake valve developed a leak, the brake for that side would apply. Left and right would have to leak at the same time in order for both brakes to apply so I don't think that this is the case. If the Power Brake Valve developed an internal leak on the purple line control side, this would apply the brakes and allow the anti skid to operate. The real question is, for this particular PBV component, is there an overlap between L and R systems?

Great video, Juan! You explain what had troubled me about this accident: IF the pilots had for some reason aborted the takeoff after V1, which everybody was assuming was the reason for the tire marks on the runway, WHY did the witnesses seem to indicate that the engines were at full takeoff power throughout the accident sequence ("normal" sounding to a witness beyond the runway end until the one engine evidently ingested something from the power pole), and why did they fly for a distance? That's not the typical abort-after-V1 profile. We assumed it had to do with the elevated runway, perhaps, but it didn't feel right. This sort of explains it. And the report indicates, as you note, that indeed the engines were at takeoff thrust throughout the sequence. The one witness's observation about not seeing the nose wheel off the ground at the intersection, and the observation that the a/c was moving slower than usual, suggest that some level of braking was being applied very early in the takeoff roll, retarding the acceleration and holding the nose down. And yet the skid marks and antiskid "chirps" don't appear until well down the runway. How was it that the tires were rotating on this aircraft at all with the parking brake on, and if takeoff thrust was enough to overcome the parking brake, why didn't we see skid marks until they're 2/3 down the runway? Was MORE brake pressure applied by the system later in the roll? How does that make sense? One possibility is that the lift component from the higher speed as the accelerating aircraft got towards the end of the runway would make the aircraft lighter on the tires, reducing friction between the rear tires and the ground so that the ground wouldn't turn the wheels and instead they would skid. (Indeed, maybe that's the explanation.) If so, that supports the idea that the parking brake was applied from the very beginning and indeed takeoff thrust in this thing is enough to overcome the parking brake (as it is in my automobile). If that's the case, then Cessna indisputably needed to have the parking brake as part of the NO TAKEOFF warning system. With the brake on, and takeoff power applied, the aircraft behaved normally-ENOUGH that the pilots didn't immediately decide to abort. What is truly-disgraceful here, and I know you're too polite to say it, is that some European agencies (or smart customers) apparently required that the parking brake be part of the NO TAKEOFF warning system, so Cessna plainly has the wiring and computer logic already in place to provide this safety measure but decided not to include or activate it in US-registered aircraft. This also reminds me a bit of the Ameristar Charters MD80 accident, where the Captain (who had a zillion hours in DC9-series aircraft) pulled back on the yoke, got nothing, pulled further, still got nothing, and immediately aborted even though he was beyond V1, basically saving everybody. NTSB said that had he taken even a couple of seconds to think about it before aborting, everyone would have died, as they would if he had tried to take it into the air, because it was under no circumstances going to fly. Being present and fully-focused in every moment of the takeoff is what allowed him to react decisively to an anomaly, whereas these poor guys evidently didn't have that edge-of-their-chairs, looking for reasons not to depart, knife-edge awareness that would have allowed them to timely abort. I like the guy who says that every landing is an aborted go-around. Perhaps there's a component of that mentality that would have saved lives here.
@axelknutt50652 жыл бұрын
@William Candee referring to the first part of your post about the skid marks, maybe the tyres were rotating initially (assuming the parking brake was ‘partially’ set) but wore a flat spot. The flat spot might only grab slightly for a start but it would grow to the point where it’s just going to lock into that position on the tarmac and leave a continuous skid mark. This might even explain the intermittent darker patches which have been attributed to the ABS.

I commented in your initial video on this crash that it was the parking brake on. I personally witnessed a takeoff from the right seat in a citation a few years back where the captain forgot to release the brake after an extended line up and wait. It took almost all of the 8300’ runway to be airborne and we burst a tire on landing. The first thing you think about is the engines are not making power. It wasn’t until after rotation I looked over and pointed out to the captain the parking brake was set and told him not to raise the gear which he did anyway. They have no chance on a short runway like that. There was definitely a distraction to the crew right before taking off leading the captain to forget to release the brake.

In the MQ-9 Reaper, we had an acceleration time check. It's not what I'd consider a high performance aircraft, but it's flown like an 11k pound turboprop. We calculate TOLD data, including V-Speeds, and time to 50kts. When I takeoff, I call the seconds on the clock in the HUD. "FULL POWER, 12 ON THE CLOCK." If our acceleration time check is 17 seconds, both crew members know to look for 29 seconds on the clock. The Sensor Operator acts much like a copilot, and monitors the speed check. Usually it sounds like "50, SPEED CHECKS," and I'll look at the clock and speed as well, and call "GO." It's a good and critical practice. We have different criteria than standard V1/V2 etc, since it's a single engine aircraft, but it's proven to be a good, safe procedure.

One possible explanation is that to land on that short runway requires heavy braking. The Citation landing distances are dependent on touching down at the correct speed and with aggressive braking. Not the kind of braking that most pilots carrying passengers apply. Heavy braking heats up the disks and the pads. Then the aircraft sits and the disks and the pads cool down. So with the cooling, the brakes are not effectively on (the pads are not pushing against the disks). Then they take off with the parking lever still pulled, parking brakes on, and as the aircraft accelerates down the runway the pads and disks heat up and all the sudden the brakes are on (pads applying pressure to the disks) and the skid marks start. With the brakes cooled down, the aircraft might taxi normally and the pilots didn't realize that the parking brakes were on.

Great analysis, as usual, and that 50/70 rule is a handy cross-check. Regarding the annunciator system for the PB, every automobile has a red dash light that shows 'BRAKE', and many newer ones have annoying dingers that at least indicate something isn't right to start rolling. Brake temperature warning might have some use in helping identify this problem along with a warning , and since brake pressure is monitored, residual pressure with brakes released would show a condition of fluid trapped in the wheel caliper areas. I've heard in the past of aircraft that actually got off the ground ok with the dragging brakes on fire, then retracted into the wheel wells, and then.......... I've been within 20 feet of a KC-130 tire that blew off a shattered rim during towing, and it has enough force to de-skin a wing.

The parking brake valve traps whatever pressure is applied to the brakes when the parking brake is set. Best procedure is to stand on the brakes (with power/28v on) to energize the power brake pump, stand on the brakes, then set the parking brake. Newer airplanes have done away with master cylinders on the rudder pedals entirely, pedals just apply inputs to the brake metering valves downstream from the electric brake pump. Any other procedure just traps whatever residual pressure happens to be in the system. Sometimes its enough to keep the airplane from rolling, especially with new/good brakes on a level ramp Worn brakes? Sloped ramp? Maybe, maybe not. Another issue was related during a line shack BS session about this. C560 was chocked, needed to be relocated to other side of field. Guys hook up, start towing it across. Had to stop before crossing the active. Start to pull again, wont move. Brakes are locked. Parking brake set in cockpit, aircraft door locked. Pilot had to be called out to unlock door and release the brakes. The consensus was that the pressure gradually increased as the dragging brakes temp increased, thus locking the brakes when stopped Same system has been used in the 500 series since day one, along with the 650s. One might ask why there is suddenly a problem. The 560XL/EXCEL has an abundance of power, compared to the earlier 500 series. When mechanics do ground runs, especially when you need to run it above 85% and are light on fuel, its good practice is to stand on the brakes, apply the parking brake AND chock the main wheels. Its easy for the airplane to overpower whatever drag coefficient there is between tires and pavement. So why does this problem occur recently, when the parking brake system has worked fine for the previous 40-50 years? I'm just guessing, but one of the factors may be that there are a bunch of pilots out there who dont know, or care to understand, how their airplane's systems actually work. You will debrief these guys who write squawk scenarios that "cant happen", then get the "deer in the headlights" look when you start asking for more details. Any mechanic/AMT who has spent any time at all debriefing flight crews can tell you this.

Great stuff Juan. As a high time c500,c560xl, c650 (all same brake) guy I can tell you the brake almost hits your right knee when pulled. The parking Brake pressure is directly related to the pressure applied to the pedals BEFORE the parking brake is pulled! There is NO accumulator. It is very common for a citation to go rolling off a sloped ramp if the chocks are pulled. Because not much pressure was applied to the toe brakes. I personally have had an airplane change parking spots with a co-pilot sitting in the airplane un aware he had moved 60ft down the ramp. I can’t imagine how someone can take off with the brake on(SMH). But I really looks like that’s what they did. Damn shame. Also I always use a parking brake! If my head goes down to do anything to the fms, to brief a chart, or take my eyes away from outside the airplane the parking brake is set. The last thing you need is to accidentally move! I’ve been in several airplanes that the pilot flying released enough pressure to let the airplane roll, with both heads in the cockpit. This always results in a panic stop and one of the pilots saying an f word!

Iirc, the brake lever near the pilots right knee in the C650 is the emergency brake, not the parking brake handle. The parking brake handle is behind the center console and is pulled up to engage and pushed down to disengage. That’s from memory which is years old though.

If the park brake was on, cycling the antiskid should have released the brake. But the Cessna schematic shows the park brake is a check valve, which means the antiskid servo would pump the pressure back up again with the park brake holding the new pressure. That's the part of this design that sucks, IMO. The park brake check valve should not be where it is in 17:21 schematic, but perhaps rather between the power brake valve and antiskid servo valve.

It's a wacky system that has never been brought up by Cessna in detail. The Latitude, Longitude, Sovereign + and X + have No Takeoff warnings with the P Brake on... I'm not aware of any other Citations that do. It could be fixed by adding it to the micro-switch that is already in the throttle quadrant that annunciates No Takeoff if flaps are beyond T/O, speedbrakes deployed, or out of T/O trim... why the P Brake isn't on there is mind boggling.

@@oreo10111 I'm surprised that the high-end Cessna jets that you mentioned above don't have parking brake NO TAKEOFF warnings. In the Citation 525 M2, there's both a NO TAKEOFF CAS message on the primary flight display whenever the parking brake is set. And when you advance the throttles for takeoff beyond the cruise detente, the warning becomes an oral warning. Why is it the case that the lower end of the Cessna jet lineup has more sophisticated parking brake warnings? Is it because all of the planes that you mentioned require two pilots a and they should know better working as a team? Or put it another way, catch each other's mistakes? In case some don't know, the Citation 525 series is certified for single pilot operations.

Agreed these definitely need a brake/throttle interface that prevents the throttles from being advanced, or an audible TC warning that would sound, if this were attempted during normal flight operations. In this case the brake(s) may not have locked completely until friction heat caused enough expansion to defeat the ABS system. Good report Juan, thanks.
@garywilser78022 жыл бұрын
Juan , Kenneth Grimm’s comment should be highlighted because he is exactly right. The parking brake in the Excel merely traps the pressure in the brake system that is applied by the brake pedals. A light pressure will stop the aircraft from moving at idle power but not at takeoff power. The carbon brakes become much more effective as they heat up , which is why they locked up 2/3 down the runway. The anti skid system works by comparing wheel speeds and releases brake pressure on a wheel when it slows to 50% speed of the other wheel. If both wheels lock up the anti skid will do nothing. I have been flying Excels for 20 years and only one I have flown had the “no takeoff “ warning on the parking brake and it came from Europe.

Very professional and thorough presentation Juan! Expect an FAA Airworthiness Directive to be issued in the very near future to address this problem. I see the installation of new parking brake valves on the Excel series of aircraft and then the possible install of a redesigned valve when they become available. In addition, the parking brake position will have to be incorporated into the "No Takeoff Warning System". If this modification is not feasible, then an independent subsystem will have to be designed to trigger the Master Warning System when the throttles are advanced to the takeoff position and the parking brake is in the set/on position. Flight Manual and checklist amendments will have to be included as well. For your information, the larger and more elaborate models of Cessna Citations have the parking brake position monitored by the No Takeoff Warning System. The 560XL series shares it type certification and type design specifications with the original Model 560 and was delivered as such.

Less than full brake system pressure can be trapped in the brakes under the following scenario. The brake metering valve, which is controlled via the toe brakes, modulates brake pressure from zero to a little over 1000 psi. What happens is the pilot applies just enough brake to stop and hold the aircraft (which is at idle thrust) then decides to set the parking brake. At this moment, there may only be around 300 to 400 psi trapped in the brakes. Moving the aircraft forward again while forgetting to release the parking brake is easy, just add power and it will roll forward. It will definitely require more power than normal to maintain or achieve a given speed. Bottom line here is when setting the parking brake on a Cessna Citation is to fully depress the toe brakes so the brake metering valve can apply maximum pressure to the brakes.

Since a long time I'm thinking about a takeoff acceleration warning system. Thru the GPS it should be possible to evaluate the exact position of the aircraft on the runway at any time. So it's easy for the FMS (which has a database of runway lengths of all airports) to calculate the remaining runway in front of the aircraft at any time. When FMS now do calculations with the actual speed and actual acceleration values, it should be possible do determine the estimated takeoff position. And when it is beyond a specific safety margin, the FMS should give a master warning!

From the diagram and your description on how to set the parking brake, I can imagine the following scenario: The pilots brought the plane to a normal stop with normal braking force, then set the parking brake. The set parking brake just kept the pressure the pilots had applied at the time they set the brake. Aircraft didn't move, engines at idle. When they were finished updating the FMS, they advanced the throttle, maybe slightly wondering why they had to apply a somewhat higher thrust to overcome the resistance of stopped wheels. They didn't stop again on the runway but just opened the throttles for the takeoff run, not noticing they were still applying a normal braking force. Since they didn't do the takeoff performance check, they thought they were accelerating normally and tried to take off. The result was this crash.

It would appear that the parking brake would only be applied as firmly as the service brakes were applied while the parking brake knob is pulled out.

@notheisenbear56862 жыл бұрын
Juan, nice video, but clearly the parking brake is working as intended. As a mechanical engineer I believe what is happening with the skid marks is that enough lift was generated to allow the tires to skid, the suspension unloaded (moved down), traction re-established, suspension loaded until slip and repeat. Think of tire hop of a car accelerating, just in reverse. The ABS is upstream of the parking brake and can't release parking pressure or reapply parking pressure.

There is a handy little item called a Mico-lock, which is a selectable valve that maintains a hydraulic brake application in trucks and cars. If you activate it, it allows you to apply the brakes, but does not release pressure when you let off the pedal. If you inadvertently flip the lever, the next time you apply the brakes, even lightly, they will not release, with some scary consequences. If the park brake on this aircraft is a similar sort of one way valve, it could be that it isn’t completely releasing, even if the park brake is showing that it IS released. Two different accidents with similar circumstances is awfully coincidental.

It’s one of those stupid human errors. Yes, the pilots should have known to release the parking brake, but it’s a no brainer that it should be a before taxi checklist item. And I seriously question why the parking brake position wasn’t included in the NO TAKEOFF warning system. I think Cessna bears some responsibility here. I’ve not heard about the 50/70 rule before. Excellent practice to follow for any aircraft. There is a tendency for many pilots, especially part 91, to simply wait for rotate speed. On a short runway, that can put you in a place where you can no longer reject the takeoff.

According to the posted diagram, the antilock system would not have any influence when the parking brake valve is set to ON since it is the last valve before the actual brakes.

@@willhartsell2283 Using the diagram and general hydraulic theory. When the parking brake lever is in the OFF position, fluid can flow in both directions. When the parking brake lever is in the ON position, fluid can flow to the wheel brakes through the check valve but not away from the wheel brakes. This means that the pilot can turn the parking brake ON then push the foot pedals in order to set the parking brake.

Not saying it happened here Juan, but I’ve seen on some automotive brake hoses where they deteriorate inside and form a sort of check valve and not let pressurized fluid back thru quickly when the pedal is released. This usually shows itself as a caliper that won’t apply or one that drags and wears out that pad prematurely.

I've seen this loads of times in the classic car world. The inner hose collapses and when the brake pedal is depressed the fluid pressure opens up the collapsed inner hose and the subsequent release of pressure allows the inner to "relax" into it's deformed or flattened state thus not allowing the brake fluid to return to the braking system or master cylinder. Visual checks of the brake hoses don't catch this failure condition, it's usually only caught if you have an assistant operate the brakes whilst you apply your fingers to the affected hose. Due to the structural integrity of the hose being compromised the hose will often swell more than is acceptable and then remain hard as it is pressurised with hydraulic fluid. Further confirmation can be obtained by the fact that the wheel will not turn and when the bleed valve is released whilst you keep your fingers on the brake hose, the pressure under your fingers will disappear and the wheel will again be able to rotate.

Decent aviation-grade hydraulic hoses should not allow this to happen. That is why I use them to replace the brake hoses on every vehicle I've ever owned, with the advantage that they will last until long after the frame rots out and the cylinder bores are oval.

The parking brake on these aircraft use a valve that traps fluid/pressure in the line and at the wheels. There's check valves that allow pressure to be INCREASED by pressing the pedals while the parking brake is set but doesn't allow fluid to return the other direction. There's a few ways you can get "partial" braking with this system. One is if you are not pressing the toe brakes hard when you activate the parking brake since whatever pressure is at the wheel is what is maintained. Second is if you set the parking brake when the brakes are hot as they cool the hydraulic fluid contracts and releases the brake pressure at the wheels. It only takes a VERY slight contraction of the fluid to cause a SIGNIFICANT drop in the trapped brake pressure.

If he checked the speed at 10 seconds and had a reject speed, he probably would have saved himself. It adds load to do that, the plane knows the speed and time since it passed maybe 5mph at takeoff power, the plane could flag a rejection warning if you missed 2 seconds, 5 seconds, 10 second speed checks by a statistically significant amount, with 70% more time to reach 100 he probably missed the 10 second speed check by over 30%.

It's like a computer could make the decision. Input the length of runway and your starting point. If you're halfway and not enough speed the computer instantly shuts the take off down. Why couldn't that be done?
