    Let me correct you, air brakes are not only used in airplanes they are also used in trucks, buses, trailers, and semi-trailers. Bugatti moves at a speeds above 200 km/h (120 mph), in this speed the rear wing also acts as an airbrake, snapping to a 55° angle in 0.4 seconds once brakes are applied, providing an additional 0.68 g (6.66 m/s2) of deceleration The reason it uses air brakes is that Bugatti claims the Veyron will brake from 400 km/h (250 mph) to a standstill in less than 10 seconds, though distance covered in this time will be half of a kilometer (third of a mile).
