On page 2 describing Take-Off : "...I depressed a small trigger on the front of the stick which provides approximately twice the braking power of the standard hydrolic system..."

 

Is this brake modelled? I find when I hold w during take-off the plane moves forward just before reaching full aft. Edit: I missed that the wheel brake is release just before full aft so rolling might be correct.

 

I would like some comments on this since this may also be related to the wheel brake and tire burst issue.
