Accidents
Three bizjets damaged in a week of overruns
Landing overruns substantially damaged two Gulfstream IVs and a Falcon 20 in the period between November 29 and December 5.

Landing overruns substantially damaged two Gulfstream IVs and a Falcon 20 in the period between November 29 and December 5. These accidents did not cause any injuries, but they were serious enough to warrant NTSB investigation and they happened around the same time that 23 people were killed in four separate accidents involving corporate jets and a King Air.

Hydroplaning might have been a factor in the landing accident of a Falcon 20 on December 5. N82TN was substantially damaged when it ran off the end of Runway 18 at Pine Bluff Municipal Airport, Ark. The jet was registered to and operated by Inland Paperboard and Packaging of Austin, Texas. The two pilots and two passengers were not injured. IMC prevailed, and an IFR flight plan was filed for the Part 91 flight.
