Alternatively, if you have a long runway, leave the nose wheel in the air and slowly apply back stick until it settles down on its own at 80-100 knots before braking. This minimizes use of the brakes by allowing aerodynamic drag to slow the aircraft as much as possible, and works well also. I don't know what standard Navy procedure was for the landing rollout. | Alternatively, if you have a long runway, leave the nose wheel in the air and slowly apply back stick until it settles down on its own at 80-100 knots before braking.
