IAD05CA140

According to the pilot, after the airplane landed and was rolling out, he "came back" on the throttle, the engine "started to race," and the airplane veered to the right. The pilot attempted to control the airplane by applying the brakes and left rudder, but to no avail. The airplane then veered off the right side of the runway, through grass, then crossed a taxiway, then more grass, continued up an incline, and stopped when it struck a perimeter fence. One witness, a student pilot, saw the airplane land "hard" and bounce two to three times during the touchdown. A second witness, a certificated airline transport pilot, saw the airplane land "flat", with no flare, and bounce "at least three times" before veering off the runway. A subsequent examination of the airplane, which included control continuity checks, brakes, and flight and throttle controls, revealed no pre-impact mechanical anomalies. Weather, about the time of the accident, included clear skies and variable winds at 4 knots.

On September 23, 2005, at 1750 eastern daylight time, a Beech BE-36, N8014T, was substantially damaged when it impacted a fence during a landing roll-out at Republic Airport (FRG), Farmingdale, New York. The certificated airline transport pilot and two passengers were not injured. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed. The airplane was operating on an instrument flight rules flight plan from Atlantic City Municipal/Bader Field (AIY), Atlantic City, New Jersey. The personal flight was conducted under 14 CFR Part 91.

According to the pilot, after the airplane landed and was rolling out on runway 32, he "came back" on the throttle, the engine "started to race," and the airplane veered to the right. The pilot attempted to control the airplane by applying the brakes and left rudder, but to no avail.

The airplane then veered off the right side of the runway, through grass, then crossed a taxiway, then more grass, continued up an incline, and stopped when it struck a perimeter fence.

According to a Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) inspector, two witnesses observed the landing. The first was a student pilot who saw the airplane land "hard" and bounce two to three times. The second witness, a certificated airline transport pilot, was a passenger in a corporate jet that was holding short of the runway. That witness stated that the accident airplane landed "flat", with no flare, and bounced at least three times before veering off the right side of the runway.

The FAA inspector subsequently performed an examination of the airplane, which included control continuity checks, brakes, and flight and throttle controls, and found no pre-impact anomalies.

Weather, reported at the airport about the time of the accident, included clear skies and variable winds at 4 knots.
