Well ya got me there! But even so, careful use of flight controls
can certainly mitigate brake use. I started flying the old AA-1
back in the early 70's and it wasn't much different than taxiing
one of the old Volpar Beech conversions that required braking in
place of nose wheel steering.


The best way to teach judicious use of brakes is to drag students
into the hangar during an annual and make them do a complete brake
job.

Even better if you make them PAY for it :-))
