If anyone has experienced a failure of normal brakes on an Airbus, please tell me more about it.

Whatever happened with the Leisure International A320 in Ibiza which lost all its braking capability on landing (despite no warnings to that effect).

One of the boys up front decided they weren't going to stop before the road just beyond the perimeter fence and so put the plane on the grass to the right of the runway I recall.

Presume all was fixed and the a/c is back in service (with AMM?)

Was a report ever published?

Thanks hobie.

And for those interested the a/c now flies for Volare.
