Any thoughts on today's N999LJ overrun at Columbia?

Just finished watching the press release. Any thoughts on the LR30's
accident?

I haven't seen any factual information yet other than the fact that
the plane went off the end of the runway.

But this is the Internet, so we can just wildly speculate right?

My wild spec, for starters, begins with, most likely, that the pilots
that were not familiar with runway constraints. Plain and simple. Have a
better theory, at this point?

At the end of the runway, there is a 5000 ft drop, straight down. How's
that for a constraint.

Sounds like instant altitude.

Who plans on using what lies beyond the end of a runway?

It doesn't answer the question.
