Analysis
The acft overran the departure end of the 2100 ft rwy 32 during landing. The wind was from 320 degrees at 10 KTS. The pilot stated he made one go-around because he was high. He reported that the 2nd approach was flown at 65 mph with the touchdown accomplished about 500 ft from the threshold. The brakes were applied but braking was minimal. The acft veeredleft, was corrected back but continued off the end of the rwy into heavy underbrush. An inspection of the braking system disclosed that the brakes functioned satisfactorialy with no evidence of leaks. The lining on both the lhand RH pressure plate assembly were in satisfactory condition but the lining on the RH back plate was missing. The lining on the LH back plate assembly was excessively worn and pieces were missing.
