THE PILOT STATED THAT THEY PROCEEDED TO TAXI ON TAXIWAY A NORTHBOUND TO THE RUNUP AREA FOR RUNWAY 17. AS THE PILOT REACHED THE END OF THE TAXIWAY, HE STATED THAT HE TRIED TO PULL POWER TO IDLE AND PRESS THE BRAKES.

THE INSTRUCTOR PILOT IMMEDIATELY TOOK THE CONTROLS AND TRIED HIS TOE BRAKES WITH THE SAME RESULT. THE INSTRUCTOR PILOT PULLED THE PARKING BRAKE TO TRY TO STOP THE AIRCRAFT, BUT NOTHING CHANGED.
