LW-200 rear brakes / P-brake

Some of us were around back in the day of single circuit braking systems where a burst brake line **did** require and emergency brake. Now we have dual circuit braking systems where, if one fails, there is still a redundant one. Old habits are hard to change. Besides there was some drama and excitement in saying *emergency brake* <smile>.
