It's the auto world getting back at the aviation world for the takeoff
overrun accident at Teterboro last year.

They should move or close that road. It's an unreasonable hazard for the
airport, and it's become much busier than it was when the airport was first
built.

It does look like the road is very close but where isn't a road close to
something you don't want to hit?

They should put up a brick wall or a much stronger fence. Ouch for the
jet's owner. I wonder if this will make it to the a/c's log book as
damaged or involved in a collision.

They claim the jet received "minor damage." I bet that teenager will be amazed
at how much it costs to repair minor damage on a plane.

Coffee is only a way of stealing time that should by rights belong to

As a father, I just hope her dad bought lots of insurance!!

I agree, it is time they get those dangerous roads away from our airports
and airplanes. Those roads also have noisy, stinky vehicles that drive by
all times of the day and night, makes it hard to enjoy the ramp on a nice
spring day.

That road noise is also dangerous. It can be very distracting during the
run-up, for example, when one wants to be sure that all checklist items are
covered.

There ought to be a law.

Looks like it pushed the jet around about 10° out of line. I'll bet the damage is far from minor....
