## Narrative

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

DURING DECENT IN GRADE ON TAXI WAY BRAKES WERE APPLIED AND WHEN RELEASED, THE L/H BRAKE STUCK AND THE AIRCRAFT VEERED TO THE LEFT AND DEPARTED THE TAXI WAY. PILOT EXITED THE AIRCRAFT WITH NO INJURIES. ACTIVE RUNWAY WAS NOT AFFECTED AND REMAINED OPEN .

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.
