It could have ended a lot worse though.

Seen that one... that was at now-defunct Bader in Atlantic City, NJ. Definitely a bad idea, seeing as how the runway was less than 3000 feet long, marked as CLOSED TO JET TRAFFIC  on the charts... and Mr. Hotshot had a +10-knot tailwind... more money than sense, obviously (PIC owned the aircraft).

Must have been a dozen threads (last year) on this already.

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

He actually had clearance to land at ACY not at Bader field and like Rotty said Bader was closed to jet traffic!! ::)

I bet he was thinking beforehand; yeah, I'll get babes doing this 8-) (Smiley refers to his mood ;))

And then, he lands and runs off the end of the runway.
