Hy there,
I flew into Stuttgart, Germany the other night in a pc12 (single engine turbine). A snow shower moved over the airport at our arrival. The traffic controller asked most of the big jets about their comments on the braking action. Nearly everybody replied with: "braking action is medium". I was wondering how one could determine what the braking action is? I am flying in a turboprop and do not have to use my brakes at all, and the big jets all have antiskid. So I am wondering how you can comment on the braking action?
Greetings,
Reinier
