Cessna 172R Parking Brake

As is the case with any aircraft, the Cessna 172r parking brake must be used with care. In essence, unless it is necessary to move on the ground, the brake should be on. This is especially important when starting and when performing a run-up. By contrast, in the air, the brake should clearly be off. FSX fans can toggle the brake by pressing Ctrl + ".", while Flight Simulator 2020 pilots can use Ctrl + numeric keypad DEL.
