| Confidence Rating: |  Accident investigation report completed and information captured |
The pilot reported that he taxied through loose snow and slush at the departure airport. The subsequent flight and landing took place in sub-freezing temperatures. On touchdown at the destination airport, the airplane veered to the right. The pilot applied left rudder to correct for the veer, but the airplane veered more sharply to the right, nosed down, and impacted a snow berm. The airplane sustained substantial damage to the left wing. Postaccident examination revealed that the right brake was locked by ice while the left brake moved freely. Subsequent disassembly of the right brake revealed no mechanical anomalies.
Probable Cause: Ice accretion in the right main landing gear wheel brake during departure, which prevented the right main landing gear from rotating on landing and resulted in a runway excursion and subsequent impact with a snow bank.
