On October 6, 2023, about 0945 eastern daylight time, a Cirrus SR22 airplane, N969JB, was substantially damaged while taxiing at the MBS International Airport (MBS), Saginaw, Michigan. The pilot and passenger were not injured. The airplane was operated as a Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 91 personal flight.
The pilot reported that he taxied from the fixed base operator building to runway 23 via taxiway C to taxiway C4 and held short at the approach end of runway 23. As the pilot increased brake pressure to stop the airplane, it turned to the left and completed a full 360° of turn before coming to rest. The passenger then offered to try his brake pedals, but the airplane only turned to the left, and the pilot and passenger concluded they had no control of the right brake. The passenger then observed a fire emanating from under the right wing. The right-wing lower surface was substantially damaged during the subsequent ground fire.
