## Narrative

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

(-23) N33DK WAS OPERATING UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF 14 CFR 135, ON DEMAND AIR CARGO. ON ARRIVAL AT TETERBORO AIRPORT, THE AIRCRAFT PROCEEDED TO A PARKING AREA ON THE JET AVIATION RAMP. AS THE AIRCRAFT APPROACHED WITHIN ABOUT 100 FEET OF THE HANGER, AN EMPLOYEE OF JET AVIATION SITTING ON AN AIRCRAFT TUG ATTEMPTED TO GET THE PILOTS ATTENTION BY WAVING HIS HANDS WITHOUT LIGHTED WANDS. AS THE AIRCRAFT APPROACHED AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED, THE TUG OPERATOR REALIZED THAT THE AIRCRAFT WAS NOT SLOWING, AND JUMPED FROM THE TUG. THE RIGHT PROPELLER STRUCK THE STEERING WHEEL OF THE TUG AFTER SKIDDING APPROXIMATELY 10 FEET. THIS INCIDENT OCCURRED BEFORE SUNRISE, IN A WELL LIGHTED AREA OF THE JET AVIATION RAMP.

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.
