? the wheels on a plane are usually not even turning in the air so applying the brakes is futile. Air brakes are small baffles that extend out of the wing and help slow the plane down but it is not a stop by any means. A stall is the only actual (air stop) I know of and that is when the critical angle of attack is exceeded and the wings can no longer create lift. The plane will now have the flying characteristic of a rock, or maybe some bird $&!t until the wings get air flowing around them again. A stall can be dangerous if it is unintentional, or not enough altitude for a recovery. It may also lead to a spin.

What do you do to avoid a sudden loss of lift and settling of the airplane?

Do not exceed the critical angle of attack, basically the angle the wings make with the oncoming air as the plane moves forward.

What is automobiles ABS?

ABS is antilock braking system (not 'air' braking system, especially seeing as air brakes are typically only present in heavy duty and some medium duty trucks). It engages and releases the brakes automatically as you are braking in order to prevent brake lockup and skidding.

What are the potential consequences of a sudden decrease in air pressure?

A sudden decrease in air pressure can lead to symptoms such as dizziness, shortness of breath, and in severe cases, hypoxia or altitude sickness. This can be dangerous for individuals who are not acclimated to high altitudes or for those with certain medical conditions. It can also affect the performance of machinery and equipment that rely on air pressure for operation.
