## Narrative

As the FAA filed it, in capitals; the FAA replaces private details with ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^.

(-23) AIRCRAFT WAS INBOUND TO TETERBORO AIRPORT WHEN ATC SENT THE AIRCRAFT TO ALBANY TO HOLD DUE TO THUNDERSTORMS AND TRAFFIC FLOW PROBLEMS. THE AIRCRAFT WAS THEN ALLOWED TO PROCEED TO TETERBORO AND DESCENDED TO A LOW ALTITUDE WHERE FUEL BURN BECAME EXCESSIVE. WHEN TOLD THAT MORE DELAYS SHOULD BE ANTICIPATED INTO TETERBORO THE CREW INFORMED ATC THAT FUEL WAS BECOMING A FACTOR. AN EMERGENCY WAS DECLARED, AND THE AIRCRAFT WAS VECTORED TO MORRISTOWN AIRPORT WHERE THE AIRCRAFT LANDED WITH 850 LBS OF FUEL. THE FLIGHT PLAN WAS TO LAND AT TETERBORO WITH 1100 LBS OF FUEL REMAINING.

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System. Reports are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
