| Confidence Rating: |  Accident investigation report completed and information captured |
During a landing, the airplane exited the runway and impacted trees. The pilot said that the right brake failed to work. A postaccident inspection revealed the right brake master cylinder was devoid of any hydraulic fluid. There was no indication of a leak from the brake system. The airplane had been flown about 32 hours since the last annual inspection.
Probable Cause: inadequate maintenance/annual inspection, and subsequent exhaustion of hydraulic (brake) fluid, which resulted in loss of braking action (right brake) and impact with a tree. The proximity of tree(s) was a related factor.
