Flew from Grand Rapids, MI to Rolla, MO to film the 100 Acre Wood Rally. Really nice day for flying, except when taking off from my fuel stop - my left brake stuck on! My Grumman Tiger steers using differential braking, so I couldn't steer, and blocked the runway. I was able to release it by cycling the parking brake a few times, and manually straightening the nose wheel. Another thing to get checked out soon.
