Brakepedals not moving

Another finding for today: The pedals do not move while using the differental brakes.
Also: Isn´t there a parking brake handle in the Skyraider?

Thanks, I've added it to the bug list. I did some digging can't find anything about a parking brake but a lot of pics show wheel chocks so maybe there isn't one.

Thanks Slayer. I knew some current realtime Skyraider Pilots and will ask them. Would be strange if it won‘t have a parking brake, especially on carrier parkings. But if it would be true, please add chocks and verify the cfg.

I did some research, it looks like some SPADS had them and some didn't.
I found one variation (USAF) that did.
