An all to common sight with Phenom 100's nowdays. Another brake failure? Why bother with brake-by-wire on a little aeroplane that would work perfectly with a good old hydraulic system.

What about Globeair? They have at least 7 Mustangs with another 3 or 4 coming on-line soon if not already on-line. They seem to be making a go of the air-taxi business model.
