B-1 brake incident in Guam
U.S. Air Force investigators blamed a broken parking brake for causing a B-1B bomber to crash into two emergency vehicles on Mar. 7 at Guam.
The aircraft had made an emergency landing with a hydraulics problem and after landing the crew shut down all four engines. This caused the emergency brakes to lose pressure.
The bomber rolled forward and hit the vehicles. Investigators also fault the firemen for failing to chock the front wheels.
