In an aircraft braking system comprising a plurality of carbon brakes control means is provided whereby the number and/or proportion of brakes that may be disabled at each stage of a flight spectrum (i.e. taxiing-out, take-off, in-flight, landing taxiing-in or stationary on the ground) and also the number and/or proportion applicable during each stage is further adjusted in response to the specific conditions applicable to the aircraft status at any given time thereby to ensure that the overall safety of the aircraft is not hazarded. The aircraft braking system may comprise a brake control system the operation of which is controlled at least in part by an on-board brake control implementation means actuated by a remote, land-based signalling means.
