## Analysis

THE PILOT STATED THAT HE MADE A NORMAL LANDING, BUT WHEN HE APPLIED THE BRAKES, THEY WERE OK FOR ABOUT 5 SECONDS, THEN THEY COMPLETELY FAILED. THE AIRCRAFT CONTINUED ROLLING UNTIL IT HIT A STUMP AND SOME BUSHES AT THE END OF THE RUNWAY. THE OPERATOR REPORTED THAT THERE WAS EVIDENCE OF BRAKE FAILURE DUE TO EXCESSIVELY WORN BRAKE PUCKS.
