Hs25-1000 - Istanbul Off Runway ?

[cressidom]

Hi am looking for some info on a rumour of a private jet HS25-1000 that
might have had some problems or excursion off the runway in IST.

Can anyone confirm or deny this?

Tks.Dom

Don't know what happened or when, but did see it myself early on Friday morning.
Runway 21L/03R was closed as a result. I've got a picture on my mobile but it's not much use to be honest.
It went off the right edge of 21L about 1/2 way down. Came to rest near one of the high speed exits, rendering it closed. We thought it had lost its gear but on closer inspection, we could see the wheels in the long grass.
Nothing to look at really apart from the fact it was in the grass!

A Hawker 1000 owned by Malaysian company Sorem SDT, meanwhile, was damaged on landing at Ankara Esenboga airport in Turkey on 21 December. No-one was injured.

Shows this aircraft was at Teterboro on Dec 22, so if it was in Turkey, and in fact damaged, it had to be very minor to be in USA the next day.
