If L or R ANTISKID is displayed on the WAP, what is the final crew response?

When encountering an indication of "L ANTISKID" or "R ANTISKID" on the WAP (Warning and Advisory Panel), the appropriate crew response is to select "ANTI-SKID INOP" on the NON-STD CONFIG page of TOLD (Takeoff and Landing Data). This procedure is essential because the appearance of this advisory alerts the crew that there is a malfunction in the antiskid system for the left or right main landing gear, which can significantly affect braking performance.

Selecting "ANTI-SKID INOP" serves as an important step in addressing the potential consequences of an inoperative antiskid system. It allows the crew to adjust their procedures for takeoff and landing, ensuring they can adequately manage the operational risks associated with this malfunction. The antiskid system's failure might lead to wheel lock-up during braking, increasing the risk of skidding and control loss, especially in adverse conditions.

This response effectively communicates the status of the antiskid system to other crew members and prepares the team for alternate braking actions as necessary, highlighting the importance of adhering to the prescribed emergency and abnormal procedures within the aircraft's operating guidelines.
