What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
(-23) On March 6, 2004, at approximately 1800 eastern standard time, a single engine airplane, registered as N762CB, failed to stop after landing and ran off the edge of runway 35, closing runway operations and causing several air carrier aircraft to perform go-arounds. The aircraft came to rest in a sod area at the end and adjacent to runway 35. No damage to the aircraft was noted during inspection. Both the commercial pilot and the passenger were not injured. The aircraft is owned by equipment leasing LLC., downingtown, PA and was operated by the pilot who is a certified flight instructor based out of chester county aviation, PA. The aircraft departed chester county airport, PA (K40N) on an instrument flight plan with a destination of Philadelphia International (kphl) airport and was being operated under 14 car part 91 rules for personnel flight. The aircraft was cleared by ATC for the visual approach to rwy 35 at kphl. The pilot stated that he was requested to keep his speed up during the approach because of faster traffic behind him. He also stated that the approach was difficult due to high winds and turbulence he encountered during the crosswind landing. He also stated that his approach speed was 110 at touchdown and that he had utilized full flaps during the approach and landing. Due to the high speed the pilot was unable to stop and elected to veer to the right of the runway prior to reaching the approach end of rwy 17 and ended up in wet grass and dirt. The aircraft eventually was pushed back to the hard service and taxied to the ramp without further incident. Tower tapes of the incident were obtained from Philadelphia ATC. The initial investigation of this incident is considered closed and the full contents of the investigation has been turned over to the operations unit supervisor for his review. privacy data omitted
