What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
(-23) This incident did not come to the attention of the FAA until July 12, 2007 after the aircraft had been moved and worked on. The CFI PIC from Montgomery aviation at gai was taxiing out for a FAR part 61 instruction flight with a potential student in the right seat. He said that he did a thorough pre-flight and tested the brakes satisfactorily as he started his taxi. During taxi, he had his feet on the rudder and brakes and was trying to taxi slow. He also said he was compensating for the aircraft's desire to drift right by using left rudder. He said he felt the right brake grab and the aircraft veered to the right and impacted the second aircraft before he could act. His recollection of what transpired was vague as he said it all happened so fast. During my investigation I questioned the chief inspector of Montgomery aviation and he said that N52870'S brakes checked good after the incident. privacy data omitted
