parking brake left on

heard some mesa guys blabbing in the phl crewroom about someone landing with a parking brake on yesterday? any idea where and who pulled that off?

Do you know what type of plane?

 

[blackbox]

Did they "brake" the plane?

 

[mnalpha]

i think it was a rj of sorts, just "over heard" the convo so i thought i would ask around here for details

In the CRJ you can't accidently set the parking brake. If you try to take off with it on, the plane will give a config alert. If this is true, and if it's in the CRJ, I'd love to know how this happened.

like i said, not sure, so if thats the case then it must not of been a rj

Probably monkied with the parking brake in flight for some reason? I've heard of that once before on a Brasilia.
