Preliminary Report: Hawker Overruns At TEB
Hawker 700A, Teterboro, N.J., March 8, 2005–At about 10 p.m.

Hawker 700A, Teterboro, N.J., March 8, 2005–At about 10 p.m. EST, Hawker N703TS sustained minor damage while landing at Teterboro Airport (TEB). No one was injured. The pilot instructed the copilot to lower flaps 15 degrees during the approach, about 30 miles from the airport. He requested 25 degrees on a right downwind for Runway 1. The airplane encountered severe low-level wind shear during the approach, so the pilot flew the final approach at Vref (119 knots) plus 15 knots to compensate for the wind. The airplane landed smoothly in the touchdown zone, at Vref plus 10 knots, and the pilot instructed the copilot to extend full flaps.
