TETERBORO, New Jersey (WABC) -- A plane is attempting to make an emergency landing after it blew off two of its tires during takeoff at Teterboro Airport in New Jersey.
An airport source said the pilot took off around 10:50 a.m. after its two front tires blew off, and the plane is now circling the airport before it attempts to land.
Sources said 16 people are on board. The aircraft is a Gulfstream IV, a jet flown mainly for private and business use.
The aircraft was heading to London Luton Airport in Luton, England.
The plane was expected to land at Teterboro around 12:20 p.m., but it was diverted to Westfield-Barnes Regional Airport in Westfield, Massachusetts.

Any info on why the two front tires went down?
Keep getting mixed reports - some say “deflated,” and some saying “blown.”

One plane landing now - then 5 minutes comes the G4
Got it, just caught that first landing on camera.
OK, last palne just landed ... G4 is 10 miles out
Touch down - no incident
Well that was a rather smooth roll in
I think that was it. Left looks just to be the hub, no tire
Perfectly uneventful landing. Excellent.
Nobody does FOD walks at civilian airports?
That’s it?
It landed.... never want to see another picture of that Rapper again.
The only “event” is the parking beside a building, which obscures the A/C completely from the livestreams.
Great landing though!
Nobody is perfect.
So if nobody did the FOD walk it must have been done perfectly.
Heard female on livestream remark, “How rude.”
