Corporate Falcon 900 crashes off the end of the runway during landing
 
https://aviation-safety.net/database...?id=20180927-0

Falcon 900 departed the runway while landing. Air traffic control personnel at Greenville reported that the airplane touched down "normally" at a normal touchdown point on runway 19. They saw the airplane's sole thrust reverser on the center (No. 2) engine deploy; the controllers then watched as the airplane "did not decelerate" as it continued down the runway.
The NTSB reported that initial examination of the accident site, runway, and tire track evidence showed that the airplane departed the left edge of runway 19 near the departure end, traveled across the flat grassy area at the end of the runway, continued down a 50-foot embankment, and came to rest on the airport perimeter road about 425 feet from the runway.
On the runway 01 runway end an Engineered Material Arresting System (EMAS) was installed to decelerate aircraft safely following an overrun. But apparently not on the end of Runway 19 where the accident occurred ?

Another good case for an EMAS to be installed at the Tullamarine Freeway end of Essendon 17..

It was a Falcon 50, already well discussed in this thread:

How big do you make the EMAS area? This aircraft went off the side of the RWY before the end. Did it actually travel over any area at the end of the RWY that is ordinarily where an EMAS would be? If you go off the side of a RWY, you are on your own.

No amount of EMAS would have saved the aircraft.
The FAA Initial reports state that the Left hand seat pilot held an ATPL with a 2nd class endorsment and the right hand seat pilot held a PPL, with no type rating and possibly no IFR
