Question: 1 / 1030

What is true about the antiskid system's operation below approximately 20 MPH?

It automatically deactivates

In an antiskid system, it automatically deactivates below approximately 20 MPH to prevent wheel lockup during low-speed operations. This is essential as at low speeds, the wheels are less likely to skid, and having the antiskid system active could interfere with the normal braking operation. Therefore, it is important for the antiskid system to deactivate at these low speeds to allow the pilot to have better control over the aircraft during the landing or taxiing phases.
