## Discrepancy

LEFT MLG BRAKE: ON TAXI OUT OF A HIKE OUT TO THE AIRPORT, THE BRAKE SEEM TO BE PARTIALLY ENGAGED. AFTER STOPPING THE AIRCRAFT I ENGAGED IN EMERGENCY BRAKE AND PUSHED IT COMPLETELY BACK IN BUT THERE WAS NO DIFFERENCE. WE THEN RETURNED TO THE FBO. AFTER SHUTTING DOWN, I GOT OUT TO INSPECT THE WHEEL BRAKES. I COULD NOT DISCERN IF ONE WHEEL BRAKE WAS HOTTER THAN THE OTHER.
