Will be interesting to learn what happened. Looks like a nice day weather-wise in TEB.

My vote is on the tower only having the runway with a 20kt tailwind open. Seen this before with all the runway closures up there.

Didn't realize a G-II was a "small plane".

G 200 is not a GII, different aircraft under Gulfstream

If someone lands a jet with a true 20kt tailwind - well, lets just say that would be a tough one to talk your way out of. I looked at the historical METAR's shortly after this happened. Winds seemed to be light and variable.

I am just a young fledgeling and told I don't know much
by my X-MotoroXX Captain, but is it not true that most or all jets have a 10 knot tail wind limitation for landing?

Your fired!

Yes, very common.

Yes, that is true...most, but not all....

Not uncommon for some of the larger birds...those used in the 121 world, to have a 15kt TWC limit.

But at the end of day, it's all academic. Regardless of what the certification limit is for landing with a tail wind component, you still must have ENOUGH PAVEMENT TO STOP!!!!

HELOOO....McFly....HELLOOOO!!!
