BOTH CREW MEMBERS REPORTED A NORMAL APPROACH AND LANDING. DURING ROLLOUT THE LEFT BRAKE SYSTEM REPORTEDLY FAILED. UPON PASSING NUMBERS AT THE FAR END OF THE RUNWAY THE LEFT BRAKE SYSTEM SEEMED TO FUNCTION. SKID MARKS APPEAR JUST PASSED THE NUMBERS AND CONTINUE TO WHERE THE AIRCRAFT CAME TO REST. THE AIRCRAFT TOOK OUT THE TAXIWAY ID MARKER AND THEN A TAXIWAY LIGHT ASSEMBLY. THE RIGHT MAIN WHEEL CAUGHT THE TAXIWAY LIGHT ASSEMBLY AND SPUN THE AIRCRAFT AROUND 180 DEGREES. THIS ALSO APPEARS TO HAVE CAUSED THE RIGHT LANDING GEAR TO FAIL AT THE UPPER BRACE ATTACHMENT AND FOLD BACKWARDS. THE RIGHT FUEL TANK WAS COMPROMISED AND THERE WAS A FUEL SPILL.

## NTSB investigation

None matched to this report by aircraft and date. Search the NTSB's own records: https://data.ntsb.gov/carol-main-public/basic-search

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.
