The aircraft also had broken navigation lights, but I think the FAA guy cracked them with his flashlight during the inspection.

Not a big Boeing fan of late. But the brake job was probably done (incorrectly) by United.

“braking system malfunctioned had undergone a brake-replacement job just four days prior, investigators said.”
DEI mechanic? Hey, at least there was diversity, equity and inclusion in the repair.

Thank God the jet design still included thrust reversers. I recall a push by some to eliminate thrust reversers to save weight as the braking systems had improved so much that thrust reversers werenโt needed. Not needed until they are.

In before the Boeing bashing.
“The jet had received replacement brakes during maintenance just four days prior to the incident, according to the report.”
Identify the mechanics who worked on this and fire them.

I was on a Delta Commuter flight once that had started take-off and was almost at rotation speed when it had to abort because of an engine problem light. HARD breaking..... very scary and we got near the end of the runway. Had that happened here, the plane would have hit the end of the runway and the interstate highway beyond it.

Note that this was a maintenance problem and not Boeing’s fault. Tech reconnected hoses wrong..............
