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.

A tire can shred and “Blow up.”

Of course. My complaint is with the MSM drone who is too inarticulate to craft a sentence that acurately describes what happened.

I believe this is a live shot of where the landing will be attempted.

Maybe from Boston?

I don’t think 22News or ABC40 have choppers of their own.
