DASSAULT FALCON 20, PUEBLO, COLO., JAN. 21, 2004. The captain of the Jet Ex Falcon 20 said he had no indication of runway problems from notams or from a low pass over Runway 8L at the Pueblo Memorial Airport. He landed and the airplane initially decelerated with normal braking.

When the airplane encountered snow and ice patches, the pilot deployed the thrust reversers. The airplane began to yaw to the left and differential braking failed to straighten the airplane. The captain said the airplane ran off the left side of the runway and rotated counterclockwise before coming to rest. A witness said, “I heard the [thrust] reversers go on and then off, and then on again. As they came back on for the second time, that’s when the airplane started making full circles on the runway. This happened two, maybe three times before [it went] off the side of the runway.”
