Abstract:
1. A braking system for an aircraft with electric brakes comprising: at least one electromechanical actuator ( at least one controller ( a braking control unit ( selection means ( a normal braking mode during which the braking control unit generates a normal braking setpoint ( an ultimate braking mode, having priority over the normal braking mode, that is applied in response to actuation of a parking control member, and in which the at least one actuator is controlled to apply a force in response to the actuation of the parking control member, but in which they are not blocked in position; and a parking braking mode, applied in response to actuation of a parking control member and only if the aircraft is stationary, in which the at least one actuator is controlled to apply a force in response to the parking control member being actuated and is then blocked in position.
