 When the brake pistons are extended be sure that you have some brake pads left  before that the all brake Assyrian need to be redone instead of just replacing the pads

Fouga Cabin Briefing

Speed brakes does not retract when emergency selector is on out position

If you own a Fouga or fly a fouga, you have to be careful about speed brakes emergency selector mode.

On some aircraft when you select speed brakes out in emergency mode and let the selector in out position, with the normal system on the power handle in retract mode, the speed brakes will not retract.

Some other aircraft even with the emergency selector for the speed brakes in out position, the speed brakes with the normal system on the power handle in retract mode, the speed brakes retract.

Do that check before the next flight .
