Was a D328Jet. Dragged the left wingtip, and ended up in the grass. I think it landed on runway 24. Nobody hurt. Said it was due to "jet blast" from another plane. ????

Pictures looked similar to the 2 G200s that went into the grass.

And Pinnacle went off on Traverse City. And the ********************taqua off in Columbus a few months ago.

What is so hard about keeping the wheels on the pavement?
 
Yeah, it was a Dojet, but it was Friday night. The winds were pretty gusty friday as we were leaving to go to LUK. It shut down 6/24 for the night. We got delayed 2hrs. out of LUK trying to get back to TEB. When we did get back, it was still sitting in the grass.
 
Chances are the pilots weren't young. Not too many Corporations will hire youngins to fly their airplanes. If it was a Dork jet at TEB, it wasn't an airline. Possibly one of Ultimate Air's aircraft from CAK? Also, didn't a corp dojet go off the end at HEF sometime last year?
 
I think I've also seen the Wachovia Dojet up here, too. Guess I'll find out Tuesday if its not parked in IAD when I get there...
 
The DO Jet has a very narrow wheel base. Crosswinds are demanding to say the least and unsespected jet blast would definetely be "fun".

Wachovia does not have Dojets. They have 5 CL30's, 1 G4, 1 Falcon 2000 and 1 Beachjet 400.

Really? I talked to their pilots in IAD once and they were most certainly flying a Dojet corporate shuttle. Parked in Landmark. I see that plane there quite a bit during the week. Anyone?? I could swear the pilot said Wachovia...tail # ends in W.

That is Ultimate Jet Charters. That shuttle goes to TEB once a day for another company. I think AOL or someone like that. A buddy of mine actually flys that aircraft. Same company that had the issue Friday night at TEB.

Wachovia use to have a B1900 shuttle that went up there somewhere from Charlotte every day, but they sold it a while back.

A dojet did overrun the runway at HEF but if I remember it was an aborted T/O not during landing.
