Default Re: Two Step Brake Pedal Solutions?

Just to clarify things, the rule book states that starting line stuff like line lock and trans brake must have only one switch in the circuit. A rough quote goes like this:

"One wire from a power source to a switch and on to the activated solenoid,"

power->trigger switch->solenoid. (They seem to forget the ground wire).

I have what I call "circuit power" switches for both my line lock and trans brake on the dash in aircraft covers so I can bat at them and kill the power to those devices at any time. I would just hate to bump my TB button during a run.

I consider these additional switches safety devices.
