"It is unknown why the crew elected to try to land at Bader. At about the time of the accident, the wind was reported at 12 knots from 270 degrees. The airplane was attempting to land on Runway 11 at Bader Field, which has a widely published notice that it is “closed to jet aircraft.”"
Published runway length is 2948 feet = ca. 898 metres

Anybody know what length of runway a Cessna 525 needs to land on with a 12 knot tailwind ?

I suppose that since it was a private flight they don't need to add any factor for landing distance required ?
