Narrative:
THE PILOT STATED THAT DURING THE LANDING ROLL, AT A SPEED OF APPROXIMATELY 30 KTS, THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED IN PREPARATION FOR TURNING OFF THE RUNWAY. THE RIGHT BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR AND ATTEMPTS TO PUMP IT UP WERE UNSUCCESSFUL. THE AIRCRAFT RAN OFF THE LEFT SIDE OF THE RUNWAY AND THE MAIN LANDING GEAR IMPACTED TWO EROSION DITCHES APPROXIMATELY 16 INCHES DEEP AND 25 FEET LONG.
