What was found

CREW REPORTED THAT ON LANDING, THE LEFT BRAKES, BOTH THE PILOTS AND CO-PILOTS, NEEDED TO BE PUSHED NEARLY ALL THE WAY DOWN FOR THE BRAKES TO BE EFFECTIVE. MAINTENANCE PERFORMED SEVERAL TAXI CHECKS, NOTING THAT THERE WAS NO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE RIGHT AND LEFT BRAKES EFFECTIVENESS. ALL OPERATIONAL CHECKS WERE GOOD WITH NO DEFECTS NOTED.
