Aircraft Accident/Incident Report

Heber City, Utah 84032
Friday, November 25, 2005 12:15 MST

NTSB Narrative Summary Released at Completion of Accident

The pilot reported that the landing and roll out were normal until the airspeed slowed to about 40 knots "when brakes were required to maintain directional control." He applied both brakes, and initially, the right brake held, but then it failed. The airplane swerved to the left, departed the runway, tipped to the right dragging the right wing, and then nosed down. The outboard section of the right wing sustained structural damage.

NTSB Probable Cause Narrative

The failure of the right brake, which resulted in a loss of directional control during the landing roll and a nose down.
