Private jet overshoots runway at Teterboro Airport | NJ.com (http://www.nj.com/news/index.ssf/2010/10/jet_crashes_teterboro_airport.html)

The stuff works I guess. Good to know, hope I never have to test it myself.

From the picture it looks more like a G-V or G-550.

"N923CL, s/n 1471, a Gulfstream IV on the Part 135 certificate (IMJA053F) of General Aviation Flying Service, Inc. of Teterboro, NJ, overshot the runway but was stopped by an arrester bed, which crumbled under the weight of the aircraft. There were 7 passengers and 2 pilots aboard. No injuries were reported."

Its a G4. It has an EVS camera which makes it look like a 450 or 550. The windshield wipers and chrome TR's make it a G4.

I'm curious.....has anyone heard the about the surface winds/wx yet? I'm almost afraid to post here on this site, because almost every post I read is 'judgmental' or posted by an 'expert' Sorry guys, just being honest.

By the looks of the photos (rain gear worn by the ground crew) the runway was perhaps wet.

Jetstar:

Light rain, some wind. Nothing all too bad other than solid IFR conditions.
