## Narrative

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

AIRCRAFT TAXI OUTBOUND FOR RUNWAY 15 AT BGR WHEN REPORTED BRAKING PROBLEMS.  ATC OBSERVED AND REPORTED FIRE COMING FROM BRAKES.  ADVISED PILOT OF FIRE AND DISPATCHED CRASH/FIRE.  PILOT AND FIRE CREW EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE.  DAMAGE TO THE WHEEL FAIRING, TIRE AND BRAKE HOUSING.  REPAIR STATION REMOVED THE FAIRING, REPAIRED BRAKE HOUSING, REPLACED O RING AND TIRE.  AIRCRAFT DEPARTED TO SWANTON, VT WITHOUT FURTHER 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.
