## Narrative

As the FAA filed it, in capitals; the FAA replaces private details with ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^.

NARRATIVE: THE PILOT STATED; WHILE TAXIING INTO CORPORATE JETS' RAMP, THE RIGHT BRAKE BEGAN TO LOSE PRESSURE. I PUMPED THE BRAKE AND AGAIN THE BRAKE LOST PRESSURE. AT THIS TIME I WAS USING FULL RUDDER AND I CALLED TO THE CO-PILOT THAT I LOST THE BRAKES AND NEEDED HELP STOPPING. WHEN HE BEGAN TO BRAKE, THE AIRCRAFT BEGAN TO TURN AND SLOW DOWN; BUT DUE TO THE PROXIMITY TO THE BUILDING, WE WERE UNABLE TO AVOID CONTACT DUE TO THE ICY CONDITION OF THE RAMP. THE LEFT WING STRUCK THE STEEL SUPPORT TO THE OVERHANG OUTSIDE THE LOBBY. DAMAGE WAS LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 11/2 TO 2 FEET FROM THE WING TIP AND ABOUT 4 INCHES DEEP. SUBMISSION OF THIS REPORT CLOSES THIS INCIDENT.

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System. Reports are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
