Sequence of events
NTSB’s coding before 2008: each occurrence and phase of flight, and the causes and factors under it. The codes are defined in NTSB’s coding manual.
Analysis
The pilot lost directional control after landing with a rear right quartering crosswind reported at 5 KTS. Use of opposite rudder and braking was ineffective in regaining directional control. The pilot reported no response from the left brake and stated better brake maintanance could have prevented the accident. The aircraft veered off the runway and struck a ditch.
