She flies great, but as of 10/15/09 we are on the ground. Seems a lot of dirt got into the right brake caliper and crudded up the piston O-ring. The result is a leak and no right turns. Fortunately this happened on a taxiway, going very slowly. I do remember the right brake fading just a little on the last landing but only the right side. Shudda figured! Now the preflight checklist will include checking for dripping calipers.
