Best Answer

The terminology for this system is ABS (anti-lock braking system). This prevents wheels from locking while braking heavily. The reson behind this is that when a wheel is locked, it cannot steer, which can lead to accidents. The point of ABS is not reduce the braking distance, but to alllow this vital steering while emergency braking.

Depending on the type of aircraft the answer may vary. If the system can be MEL'd : yes. But it's always gonna depend on the runway lenght , the temperature, altitude at the airport.
