Narrative:

Flight over ursus en route to lima returned to mia due to an antiskid problem. The antiskid overhead message and associated EICAS message illuminated, followed by the status messages alternate antiskid and normal antiskid. Dispatch and maintenance control were notified, as this was a repeat item (3 write-ups). A decision was made to return to mia. During descent into mia, all antiskid warnings disappeared. An overweight landing was made at 223000 pounds. The aircraft was landed normally with a smooth touchdown (runway 27L) and minimal braking. I elected to declare an emergency only as a precaution. The decision to return was based on the lack of parts in lim and the penalty (over 31000 pounds) for an inoperative antiskid takeoff.
