What happened
On February 5, 2009, a Learjet 35, registration XB-RYT, was performing a landing at Ciudad Victoria Airport (MMCV) in Ciudad Victoria, Tamaulipas, Mexico. During the landing phase, the crew lost control of the aircraft after touchdown. The aircraft slid off the runway into the grass, completing a 180-degree left turn before coming to a rest in an upright position.
The incident resulted in the collapse of the landing gear, which caused structural damage to the landing gear supports. There were no injuries reported following the event. Weather conditions at the time were reported as Visual Meteorological Conditions (VMC) with a visibility of 10 statute miles and winds from 160 degrees at 10 knots.
