Though the AAIB seemed to think it was:
In the later stages of the approach, the commander inadvertently set the parking brake, instead of the flaps to FULL. He was probably focused on changing weather conditions, because of a previous difficult landing at LBA as well as the numerous wind advisory calls from ATC, the last of which was coincident with the co-pilot's initial request for full flap.
