What happened
On July 24, 2015, at approximately 11:30 LMT, a professional pilot was performing a landing on asphalt runway 13 at EPKW. Approximately 250 meters after touchdown, the Piper PA-32-300-6 lost directional control and veered to the left, exiting the paved surface onto a grass strip. After traveling an additional 200 meters and decelerating, the pilot managed to steer the aircraft back onto the asphalt runway. The aircraft then proceeded via taxiway B to the parking area.
The investigation
Following the incident, the pilot conducted a post-flight inspection of the aircraft. During this inspection, it was discovered that the right main landing gear brake assembly was inoperative, resulting in a complete lack of braking capability on that side.
