Most CJ mishaps occur during t/o or landing, and I think more than 50% are rwy overrun. Also, this is the 2nd brake failure accident in 3 years...
CJ series are all smashing aircraft, but something is amiss here. CJ pilots I talk to say that the fault lies with owner-pilots upgrading from piston twins, and underestimating the greater inertia / higher speeds. ...discuss!
