A Dassault Falcon 50 overran Runway 01L at Harry Reid International Airport (KLAS) in Las Vegas yesterday, incurring serious damage but with no injuries onboard. Pilots aborted the takeoff just before 11 a.m. local time, with the aircraft skidding off the runway and colliding with an airport perimeter fence.

The Falcon (N200SG) was being operated by True Aviation Charter Services and is registered to Boca Raton, Florida-based Jacks Wings. According to an airport statement, the nonfatal accident resulted in the temporary closure of Runways 01L and 01R, with the FAA ordering a ground stop to prevent other aircraft from departing until the Falcon could be towed away.
