## Discrepancy

(CAN) WHEN THE AIRCRAFT STOPPED, THE GROUND CREW NOTICED SMOKE COMING FROM THE LEFT WHEEL. FANS WERE USED TO COOL OFF THE BRAKES. THE FUSE PLUGS HAVE MELTED. AIRCRAFT BRAKE SYSTEM WAS INSPECTED AND FOUND TO BE IAW THE MAINTENANCE MANUAL. THE LEFT BRAKE AND WHEEL ASSEMBLY WERE REPLACED AND THE AIRCRAFT RETURNED TO SERVICE. THE BRAKE HAS BEEN SENT FOR EXPERTISE DUE TO DISKS JAMMING.
