Incident Details
The pilot conducted a landing on an agricultural airstrip with a right quartering tailwind. Upon touchdown, the pilot reported feeling what was described as either a dragging left brake, the rough surface of the landing strip, or a combination of both. The landing was aborted. During the subsequent landing attempt, the aircraft nosed over when the wheels made ground contact.
Examination Findings
An examination of the aircraft revealed markings consistent with brake lining-to-disc contact on both main gear wheels, along with signs of heat and wear. The wheels were found to turn, but with some difficulty when checked.
Weather
The pilot reported the wind was from the west-northwest at 15 knots, gusting to 25 knots.
