No.
At least the older C172's are having mechanically operated parking
brake levers which apply force onto the same hydraulic master cylinders
as the pedals do. The DR300's and maybe even the very early DR400's
are using the same principle and, as far as I remember, that's quite
similar on the C150's and PA28's (the DR300 doesn't have toe brakes at
all ....).
Thus all their parking brakes are featuring an analogue characteristic.
The modern DR400's are having a parking brake valve according to your
explanation and our old C175 has a mechanical ! arrestor on the
hydraulic master cylinders.
Did I forget one ? Maybe.
Cheers,
Martin.
