Airplane Flying Handbook: Federal Aviation Administration
Under favorable wind and runway conditions, the nosewheel can be held off for
best aerodynamic braking. Even as the nosewheel is gently lowered to the
runway centerline, continued elevator back pressure will greatly assist the wheel
...

A-7 Corsair Pilot's Flight Operating Manual
If antiskid brakes are not available, use aerodynamic braking to decelerate to the
speed at which full aft stick cannot hold the nose up (100 [ii-10'} knots, depending
on wght and center of gravity]. When the nosewhee] is on the runway, apply ...
returned using aerodynamic braking. Sadly, there has now been an accident
during re-entry with the Space Shuttle, involving the loss of seven astronauts;
whatever the cause of this accident,1 aerodynamic braking remains the best
method of ...
... to bring the WPP to a complete halt. By design, the safety system will always
take precedence over other control systems. 5.6.1 Aerodynamic Braking of WPP
At very high wind speeds, typically 25 m/s (cut-out speed) and above, the WPP ...

WIND ENERGY: THEORY AND PRACTICE
The normal practice is to provide both aerodynamic and mechanical braking.
However, if independent aerodynamic braking systems are provided on each
blade, and each has the capacity to decelerate the rotor after the worst-case grid
loss, ...
The function of the mechanical brake in this case is solely to bring the rotor to rest
— that is, to park it — as aerodynamic braking is unable do this. 6.8.2
Aerodynamic brake options Active pitch control Blade pitching to feather (i.e. to
align the ...

Wind Power Plants and Project Development
The aerodynamic braking is similar to the principle of slowing down aircrafts, i.e.,
by spoiling the life action. This same principle is used for braking and stopping
the rotation of a wind turbine primarily by the different types of aerodynamic ...
Joshua Earnest, Tore Wizelius, 2011
Aerodynamic Braking A sailing ship is unlikely to be able to make use of
aerodynamic braking. This is because the sail and structure have been designed
to take solar force loads only, to obtain the best transfer performance across
space.

Wind Turbine Technology and Design
This operating procedure is accomplished without any undue stress, wear and
tear on the towerhead over and above what is the norm. Aerodynamic braking is
applicable for pitch-controlled and active-stall controlled rotor assemblies only.
David A. Rivkin, Kathleen Toomey, Laurel Silk, 2011
When it makes a landing somewhere other than a carrier it uses aerodynamic
braking to slow it down initially prior to applying the brakes. At faster speeds,
such as immediately after touchdown, this type of braking is very efficient and
slows the ...
