Factual narrative
THE ACFT NOSED OVER DURING LANDING ROLL. THE PROFESSIONAL PLT STATED THAT HE WAS CERTAIN THE BRAKES WERE OFF PRIOR TO TAKEOFF AND THAT HE WAS SURE HE WAS NOT 'RIDING' THE BRAKED ON LANDING. THE PLT STATED THAT HE THOUGHT THE PARKING BRAKE MAY HAVE COME ON DURING FLT. THE BRAKES APPEARED TO FUNCTION NORMALLY AFTER THE ACCIDENT. THE REASON FOR THE NOSE OVER COULD NOT BE DETERMINED.
