Therefore, the pilot turned the antiskid system off and continued the rollout with normal braking. A Learjet 23 plane, registered N235R, was damaged beyond repair in an accident 2,4 km SW of Clarendon, TX, United States of America.
The airplane operated on a flight from Detroit-Metropolitan Wayne County Airport, MI (DTW) to Pellston-Emmet County Airport, MI (PLN). The Learjet 23 (originally Lear Jet 23) is an American built six-to-eight-seat (two crew and four to six passengers) twinjet, high-speed business jet manufactured by Lear Jet.Introduced in 1964, it was Learjet's first model and created a new market for fast and efficient small business aircraft. The airplane operated on a flight from Amarillo International Airport, TX (AMA) to . The Learjet 23 (originally Lear Jet 23) is an American built six-to-eight-seat (two crew and four to six passengers) twinjet, high-speed business jet manufactured by Lear Jet. Immediately afterward, Night Air 4 began what appeared to be a level turn to the right. The pilot had computed landing performance information for a landing on a wet runway with anti-skid; sufficient runway surface was available. The airplane operated on a flight from Palm Springs Municipal Airport, CA (PSP) to Hollywood-Lockheed Air Terminal, CA (BUR). Crash of a Learjet 23 in Atlangatepec: 2 killed, Crash of a Learjet 23 in Detroit: 3 killed, Crash of a Learjet 23 in Ansonia: 2 killed, Crash of a Learjet 23 at March AFB: 2 killed, Crash of a Learjet 23A in Guatemala City: 2 killed, Crash of a Learjet 23A in Windsor Locks: 3 killed. As the flight continued and was cleared to FL270, the crew displayed confusion about magnetic headings and basic instruments. Crash of a Learjet 23 in Richmond: 2 killed. On approach to Guatemala City-La Aurora Airport, the crew encountered poor weather conditions and limited visibility. Recognizing the potential of the Swiss-designed single-engine ground-attack FFA P-16 fighter jet, William (Bill) Powell Lear, Sr. established Swiss American Aviation Corporation (SAAC) to produce a two-engined passenger version: the SAAC-23 Execujet. This map shows the airport of departure and the intended destination of the flight. The Richmond approach controller acknowledged the handoff, gave current weather and wind conditions, and told the flightcrew to expect a visual approach to runway 2 at the Byrd International Airport. The ruling noted that appropriate hushkits were not currently available for the Lear Jet 23. Both pilots were uninjured while the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.
The approach controller turned the aircraft over to the local control tower operator at 0308. No preimpact part failure was verified, though impact forces and post-crash fire resulted in extensive damage of the aircraft.

This information is not presented as the Flight Safety Foundation or the Aviation Safety Networks opinion as to the cause of the accident. The Safety Board could not determine the reason for the right spoiler malfunction. Production ended in 1966 after 101 aircraft had been delivered. When the airplane was about 200 feet over the approach lights, an increase in engine thrust was heard and the airplane halted its rate of descent in what two pilot witnesses thought was an apparent attempt to go-around. There were four passengers and two crew members on board. The flight crew became incapacitated for undetermined reasons and lost control of the airplane. The aircraft was totally destroyed and both pilots were killed. A Virginia Air National Guard security guard on duty near an aircraft parking ramp and the "M" taxiway adjacent to runway 33 witnessed the accident. As the aircraft turned onto the final approach it rolled inverted and impacted the ground inverted short of runway 32. The flightcrew requested an instrument landing system (ILS) approach to runway 33.

The pilot's failure to maintain proper airspeed and aircraft attitude while transitioning from final approach through flare to touchdown. He did not hear the aircraft touch down, but did hear a sudden rise of engine noise. Improper preflight by the pilot, his failure to abort the takeoff while there was sufficient runway remaining, and his failure to assure that the aircraft attained sufficient airspeed for lift-off and climb. Both pilots were killed. Examination showed rotational damage occurred in both engines during impact. The Bureau of Aircraft Accidents Archives (B3A) was established in Geneva in 1990 for the purpose to deal with all information related to aviation accidentology. Both pilots were killed. The pilot decided to conduct his flight with known aircraft deficiencies. On February 26, 1973, a private Learjet 24 crashed shortly after take-off from DeKalb–Peachtree Airport in Chamblee, Georgia, United States.The aircraft, registration N454RN, owned by a private corporation, struck birds shortly after lifting off. Performance data indicated more runway surface was required for a safe landing on a wet runway without anti-skid assistance. A Learjet 23 plane, registered N1021B, was destroyed in an accident at NE off Racine-Horlick Airport, WI (RAC), United States of America. Aircraft was about 430 lbs over max weight limit. He then saw a ball of fire on runway 33 and immediately sounded the crash alert; the time was 0311:58. The crew was engaged in a local test flight at Wichita Airport on this first model of the Lear 23. Investigations showed left seat pilot had training in later models (Learjet 24/25); but only a biennial flight review was noted in the model 23. On later models (sn: 23-050 and up), p/b needed only to be moved 'off.' Both pilots …
The airplane was on a normal approach to runway 33 with no apparent abnormalities. At liftoff, the airplane encountered difficulties to gain height. Approach control identified the airplane, cleared it for a visual approach to runway 33, and at 2336 gave Night Air 4 a turn to position the airplane on final approach at 10 miles from the airport.

None of the witnesses reported any significant lateral or vertical changes while the aircraft was on short final or during the 90' right turn prior to its descent into the ground. improper preflight by the pilot, his failure to abort the takeoff while there was sufficient runway remaining, and his failure to assure that … These illusions, which made the pilot think that he was higher than his true position, were made more acceptable to him because of a strong possibility of an erroneously high indication on his altimeter. On later models (sn: 23-050 and up), p/b needed only to be moved 'off.' At 0515 est, the flight was cleared for takeoff on a flight from Ypsilanti, MI to Louisville, KY. About 17 minutes later, the flight crew began to display indications of a deterioration of their ability to control the aircraft. The aircraft was equipped with oxygen and pressurization system. He said that the aircraft was "a bit high" on its approach, but descended to a normal touchdown attitude and altitude with the noise of the engines winding down. A Learjet 23 plane, registered N434EJ, was destroyed in an accident 4,4 km SW of Pellston-Emmet County Airport, MI (PLN), United States of America. Therefore, the pilot turned the antiskid system off and continued the rollout with normal braking. A Learjet 23 plane, registered N235R, was damaged beyond repair in an accident 2,4 km SW of Clarendon, TX, United States of America.

The pilot's improper technique during roundout may have been due to fatigue, his limited knowledge, training, and experience regarding the flight characteristics of the Learjet aircraft, and distraction caused by concern over the intensity of the approach lighting. At 1st, they deviated from instruments to hold west of the Findlay VOR at FL220. The controller cleared the aircraft to land at a March AFB, the nearby airport. The witnesses stated that they saw an explosion which was followed by intense ground fire. The airplane's nose dropped below the horizon and the airplane descended into the ground in a nose low attitude. The line between the airports does. There were five passengers and two crew members on board. The fuel bill was $596.63, which was paid in cash. On May 5, 1980, an unmodified Gates Learjet 23 (N866JS) was operated by Kennedy Flite Center, Richmond, Virginia, on a purported crew training flight.
