It skidded across the runway..across RTE 46..and into a building..
yikes!
Ran off the runway. It crossed Route 46, which is a major roadway. Fox 5 just said several accidents on Route 46 as a result.
Sounds like he tried to abort the takeoff..couldn't stop it...
PING
Valet parking gone bad?
Probably going to fast and didn't hit the brakes quick enough.
Or there's ice conditions that they weren't expecting.
I hope everyone is OK. Teterboro is a very busy airport for corporate and private jets.
Wild speculation here: laser blinding? It happened in that area before.
No.it was an aborted take-off..he ran out of runway trying to stop..may have been the "best" of a bad group of options.

Same wild speculation here.

UPDATED: 7:41 am EST February 2, 2005TETERBORO, N.J. -- A plane has slammed into a building after going off the runway at Teterboro Airport.
It appears the private jet broke through a fence and skidded across Route 46 into the building.
Ahh, least worst option out of all options.
Maybe, depends.
An aborted takeoff, but what caused the aborted takeoff to begin with?
Ken, see post 11.
Possible cause for abort?
wow..the laser thing...I'd fogotton about that..but they usually target planes landing..
Could be lots of stuff..just at V-1..something malfunctions..the pilot has a second to decide to go for it or not..
