Learjet down in Conn.

Another shot from the hip is the duck under syndrome. The pilot is flying
along the GS well and picks up ground contact coming through the murk.
Pilot goes a little lower to pick up the runway and goes below glide slope
and into the ground. All while flying straight down the localizer.

I live in CT, weather was scattered but bad at the time (low clouds,
scat tstorms). Dunno how it could have happened though, a jet as well
equipt (and probably well piloted) as a LearJet should be, seems odd,
coming down over a half mile short of the runway.

Shooting from the hip, and with no facts to base this on, I SPECULATE
low-level
windshear . . . microburst. Winds were definitely strong enough to push
the
plane down.
