## Narrative

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

(-23) PILOT REPORTED HE WAS CLEARED TO TAXI OUT TO RUNWAY 31 AT TAMIAMI AIRPORT, FLORIDA AND AS HE WAS TAXING OUT, WITH A STRONG TAIL WIND, HE PROCEEDED TO STOP STRAIGHT AHEAD BY TAPPING ON BOTH BRAKES SIMULTANEOUSLY. AFTER TAPPING ON THE BRAKES, THE AIRCRAFT TURNED TO THE LEFT, WHICH INDICATED TO HIM, THE RIGHT BRAKES DID NOT ENGAGE. HE FURTHER STATED, THAT HE IMMEDIATELY PROCEEDED TO SHUT DOWN THE ENGINE TO PREVENT AIRCRAFT FROM MOVING FURTHER, AND THAT BEFORE THE AIRCRAFT CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP, HIS RIGHT WING IMPACTED A RUNWAY SIGN WHICH CAUSED VERY LITTLE DAMAGE TO THE LEADING EDGE OF THE WING.

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.
