Buzz Sawyer Writes:
Right brake locked up after 2-hour + flight from Holloman. Took Jim Fairhurst (Zorro) all his 100 hours in the jet to do absolutly nothing to keep it on the runway. Nose broke off and disconnected the battery--he was trapped. Luckily no fire-but it never flew again. I had a similar brake-locked-on-landing a few weeks later, but kept it on the pavement.
