Subject: parking brake
For those using the matco parking brake, you might add to your starting
check list, to make sure its in the off position.
Today I found that its possible for the brake pressure to bleed off if
the plane sits for a while. You put your feet on the brakes while
starting and you cant apply the brakes for the valve is shut closed. You
could move forward with no brakes. I almost hit another plane.
