The operator of the Bombardier Challenger 600 destroyed in a take-off overrun at Teterboro, New Jersey has been served a "cease and desist" order by the US Federal Aviation Administration, alleging it does not have an operating certificate. The FAA has also served a subpoena requiring the operator, Platinum Jet Management, to provide documents it had previously withheld on the grounds that surrendering some of them would violate the pilots' privacy.
Both pilots were badly injured in the runway overrun, when the aircraft careered through the airport boundary fence and hit a building, but the eight passengers and flight attendant suffered only slight injuries, according to the National Transportation Safety Board's (NTSB) preliminary report. The NTSB says the flight was operating under a Part 135 certificate, but Platinum concedes that the certificated party was Darby Air, which operates as AlphaJet. Platinum says it provides the aircraft and contract flightcrew, and it pays AlphaJet to provide the oversight.
