Bad timing...
In the TriPacer, a cable goes from the hand brake, around a few pulleys, and ultimately it ends up under the pilot's seat. Under the pilot's seat (and I'm not joking) you will find a Piper Cub heel brake, with a hole in the back of the heel brake, where the cable connects. The heel brake is hydraulic and applies both wheel brakes simultaneously. The diaphragm has a habit of splitting just when you really need the brakes, leaving you with nothing! -- Unless you put in an STC'd booster from Steve's Aircraft Then you really have brakes whenever you really need them. :-) Cheers: Paul N1431A
