Shold the wheels feel so "slippery/greasy" on landing?

To minimize issues, I always land with NWS Off and avoid brakes until the second half of the runway.

You can turn it off? I was only aware of high gain/low gain.... whereas low gain should be the default unless high gain is positively needed.

Yes ofc, a switch with a guard right underneath the high/low gain -switch. Makes landing so much better.

And in CE, the guarded switch is right next to it on the right.

Maybe I should read a manual every now and then….

to my IRL experience F1 didn't use regurlarly the drag chute in landings. DCS F1 for whatever reason has a real issue with braking. None of the other DCS jets behaves like it.

In fact IRL the brake chute was almost never used. I worked for 10 month on the BA132 Colmar-Meyenheim, in the RC 2/30 Normandie-Niémen, and saw only one time a pilot using the brake chute.

Well, I could imagine it depends a little on available runway length. When you don’t NEED that much braking action, it certainly less headache to leave it alone.
