What happened
On August 17, 2013, a Cessna 182T operated by Dantex sp. z o.o. S.K. was performing a private flight from Jastarnia (EPJA) to Warsaw-Babice (EPBC). Following a landing at 17:28 LMT, the pilot began taxiing from the concrete runway toward a grass taxiway to reach a hangar located at the IBEX facility.
During this taxiing maneuver, the front attachment of the right main landing gear wheel fairing detached. This caused the fairing to rotate, which subsequently damaged the second attachment point and the fairing itself. The movement of the fairing also resulted in a severed brake line. No other damage to the aircraft was reported.
The investigation
The investigation, conducted by the operator, focused on the mechanical failure of the fairing attachments and the resulting damage to the braking system during ground operations.
