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 plt said he made a normal ldg. During ldg roll the left brake would not respond to pedal application. The plt errored by incorrectly feathering both props. The a/c went off the eng of r/w and struck a fence. Examination of the brake system revealed a brake puck was missing. A missing puck would cause poor braking action.
