Narrative:
Normal landing runway 13L at aus. Applied brakes, did not receive braking action. No skid marks as result of braking or flat place on tires to indicate that brakes were working. Ran off end of runway at approximately 30 mph. Pilot thought that had he attempted to make a 90 degree turn on taxiway at end of runway, he would FLIP the airplane. Upon leaving runway airplane, impacted into a ditch causing propeller damage. Aircraft had just been annualed. New brake linings had been installed and were glazed. Brake linings were not properly broken in (i.e., burned in). Brake disc failed to meet minimum tolerance limits. Following accident, brake fluid on floor and footwear.
