| Confidence Rating: |  Accident investigation report completed and information captured |
The pilot reported that, during the landing, he applied the brakes and that the left pedal subsequently hit the floor. He attempted to control the airplane with the right brake and left rudder, but, as the airplane slowed, the rudder became ineffective. The airplane departed the right side of the runway, struck a berm, and the nose landing gear collapsed.
Postaccident examination of the airplane’s left brake revealed that the left brake master cylinder seal had failed, which rendered the left brake inoperative. A review of the airplane maintenance records revealed that the brake master cylinders had recently been rebuilt and had accumulated about 40 service hours before the failure.
Probable Cause: The failure of the left brake master cylinder seal, which rendered the left brake inoperative during landing.
