Not going to name airports or tail numbers.
It probably won't make much difference if they're on security cam but I suppose it will be public knowledge if the FAA goes after them. I'm not a big fan of deliberate careless and reckless operation by professional pilots.

The other night around 2 am and Gulfstream iv did not read the notams at the airport they where planning to land at. (home airport) The runway was closed for sweeping/cleaning. The pax did not want to go to the nearest airport that could handle the jet. I do not know who's idea it was or why the pilots would do it but.... They flew only a few miles away and landed at 2am on a 2,700 ft runway and let the pax/s off. They could not turn around so the reversed all the back down the runway and then took off. Apparently there was two low approaches prior committing to land.

All this was found out when review of the security cams where replayed the next day.
Holy SH!_!!!

So there is video on it and I am trying to see if I can get access to it.
Please do...
