Off the end

Some discussion over on another forum re: this accident. Pilot claims brake failure. If one brake fails or fades you will not go off the end. You will definitely off the side with the good brake. http://www.kathrynsreport.com/2022/03/lancair-es-n4949b-incident-occurre...

Good post Dr. Edwards.

Good post Dr. Edwards. 
In the pilots narrative, he does admit to landing too far down the runway and being unfamiliar with the field. He landed after dark and (presumably), was not prepared to go around.  Looks like perhaps the mechanic who inspected the aircraft claimed partial brake failure. 
 

Whenever I check out a new airline Captain, I always make sure to tell him that he actually makes more money if he goes around than if he lands. That normally solves any apprehension of conducting go arounds …..

I hope you’re well
