A Gulfstream IV, N101CV, suffered multiple tire blowouts or worse when departing KTEB Teterboro NJ this morning. The plane has been holding and flying around New England for several hours to burn off fuel. 16 passengers/crew aboard with an orginal destionation of EGGW (London Luton).
It will attempt to land at KSWF Stewart International, New York in several minutes on Rwy 9 (the longer runway). Hopefully the landing will be a non-event and the runway/airport will be reopened soon. ATC hopes to keep the shorter runway open if the intersection is clear.
Although the tail number is blocked from tracking sites, Flightradar24 was originally showing the unidentified plane course, but that has stopped. Previous reports that the plane would return to KTEB or land at KBAF are incorrect.
