Dominican Republic Gulfstream crash

As an ex gulfstream pilot I’ll be the first to say it’s not a real gulfstream.

Not hearing a lot of credible news yet. The flight track looks like either a control problem or an issue with hydraulics. Also a report of an engine failure. The G200 is one of the few airplanes that can fuel dump, and pics show they did that.

What really got them was landing off the runway into the grass. Sheered off the gear and the wing and boom.

Seems like they had their hands full, but will be curious to see what the report says.

Yeh looks like they pulled up when the tarmac approached which caused issues…
