Anyone got a cure or wailing brakes ? Particularly when I pull up to a stop for the run-up ... scares the Bejesus out of the passengers. The calipers are moving free on the pins, there's plenty of time on the pads ... they should have seated by now ... Infusion of witchhazel ? Three Hail Marys and a splash of Holy water ? Replace the pads ? Get over it and tell the passenger its the "super-turbo" winding up ?
Seriously, any suggestions greatly appreciated ...

Good subject. I've just experienced this on the last couple of flights,
only on the left brake. I'm thinking that some of my fiberglass powder
got in there while I was sanding the wheelpants. I'll be pulling it all
apart and giving it a thorough cleaning this week. Not sure if it will
help...

I had the same problem. Removing all stress form the line fixed it. I
remember one guy that used hose and had the problem till he replaced the
hose with aluminum line. It was in the RVAtor 7 or 8 years ago.
