Incident on 3/22/2019 at kleb
N82SB operated by tradewind aviation as flight WDZ767 landed at 23:44 EDT following flight from teterboro, NJ, kteb.
Nearing kleb the RNAV (GPS) rwy 36 approach was requested and granted by boston center. The flight was cleared direct to hirer waypoint, an intermediate fix on the approach procedure, to maintain 4,900 until hirer.
PIC indicated the approach procedure was thoroughly discussed, ASOS weather listened to and descent and approach checklists completed before hirer waypoint. PIC believed the sic's first attempt to turn on runway lights was prior to this waypoint. PIC did hear the radio clicks with this and subsequent attempts to turn on the pilot controlled lighting, and PIC did confirm that it was the correct frequency, 125.95.
ASOS reported wind 340/6, visibility 10 miles, few 1,400, scattered 2,100, altimeter 29.19.
PIC indicated the approach was routine, with continuous ground contact from prior to the final approach fix. The aircraft was configured for landing prior to the final approach fix.
PIC indicated the PAPI lights were visible at or prior to the final approach fix and were used for vertical guidance. The crew discussed the absence of runway lights despite multiple attempts to turn them on but continued the visual portion of the approach believing there may have been some directionality in the lights.
PIC stated-during the slight left turn for final runway alignment or to start the missed approach I spotted what I thought to be a runway covered with fresh snow.
PIC stated-the landing touchdown was normal, but the rollout immediately rougher than normal. My immediate thought was that some of that recent snow had frozen more solid than it appeared. It was probably two thirds through the rollout that the SIC fully recognized what had happened. You're not on the runway. Its to your left.
I turned toward it and taxied onto the paved surface without difficulty.
Passengers were deplaned at the FBO and ushered through the security fence by the SIC.. End.
The aircraft landed adjacent to runway 36 on snow covered grass.
End.
