What happened
Approximately five seconds after touchdown, the crew of the aircraft experienced an uncommanded brake application affecting both tires on the right main landing gear. The pilot managed to maintain directional control of the airplane by utilizing nose wheel steering and left rudder.
While the aircraft was taxiing toward the gate, the hot brake temperature warning light for the right main landing gear illuminated. Following this, a fire was observed near the right landing gear area. In response to the fire, the crew initiated an emergency evacuation while still on the taxiway.
The investigation
An examination of the landing gear and brake system components revealed no anomalies. Investigators were unable to identify the specific reason for the uncommanded application of the brakes.
