NTSB Identification: CEN10LA093
14 CFR Part 91: General Aviation
Accident occurred Friday, January 08, 2010 in Eagle, CO
Probable Cause Approval Date: 07/22/2010
Aircraft: Dassault Falcon 20C, registration: XA-PCC
Injuries: 7 Uninjured.
NTSB investigators may not have traveled in support of this investigation
and used data provided by various sources to prepare this aircraft
accident report.
During taxi the airplane was observed to run over a tire chock with the
left main gear tire. During a turn out of the ramp, the left main gear
was observed to run over the nose gear chock that had been removed from
the nose gear by the pilot during pre-flight. During the departure roll,
the left main gear tire failed and the pilot elected to abort the takeoff
attempt. The airplane did not stop on the remaining runway surface and
departed the runway overrun area, coming to rest in snow-covered terrain.
An examination of the airplane's systems revealed no anomalies.
The National Transportation Safety Board determines the probable cause(s)
of this accident as follows:
main landing gear wheel chock, resulting in damage and subsequent failure
of the main landing gear tire during the takeoff roll.
=====================================
A private jet slid sideways off the end of the runway at the Eagle County
Regional Airport Friday afternoon, delaying eight commercial flights.
None of the seven people on board the Dassault Falcon were injured when
the jet aborted a takeoff.
The incident happened at about 12:25 p.m., according to airport
officials.
The Dassault Falcon was bound for Mexico, where it is registered.
The airport's single runway was closed for about two hours, delaying
commercial flights.
