ATX LEARJET HIT THE LIP OF THE RWY.

Narrative

MADE A VISUAL APCH TO C-19 IN A LEARJET 23. GOOD WX WAS IN THE AREA AND THE WIND WAS NOT STRONG. WENT THROUGH NORMAL CHKS AND SET THE ACFT UP IN LNDG CONFIGN. ON TOUCHDOWN; WE HEARD A LOUD NOISE. SOON AFTER TOUCHDOWN; THE ACFT LOST CTL ON THE GND AND STARTED TO VEER L. FULL PWR WAS APPLIED AND THE ACFT WAS BROUGHT BACK INTO THE AIR. ONCE WE HAD THE ACFT BACK IN THE AIR; WE DECIDED TO GO BACK TO THE ARPT (C-19) AND MAKE A LOW APCH TO SEE IF A SAFE LNDG COULD BE MADE. WE ASKED GND PERSONNEL TO LOOK AT THE GEAR AND SEE IF THEY SAW ANYTHING UNUSUAL. THEY RADIOED BACK TO US THAT THE L MAIN APPEARED TO BE BROKEN. WE DECIDED TO RETURN TO YIP WHERE WE COULD BE IN CONTACT WITH OUR COMPANY MECH; AND ADEQUATE EMER PERSONNEL WOULD BE AVAILABLE. WE MADE ABOUT 4 LOW APCHS AND; AS OUR FUEL RAN LOW; WE RAN OUT OF OPTIONS AND HAD TO MAKE A LNDG WITH A BROKEN L MAIN. AS WE TOUCHED DOWN; THE ACFT SLOWED AND VEERED L AGAIN INTO THE GRASS. THE ONLY PERSONAL FACTOR THAT I CAN THINK OF RIGHT NOW IS THAT I HAVE BEEN PUT UP IN A HOTEL FOR 2 1/2 MONTHS; FORCED TO EAT FAST FOOD AND A DIFFICULT SCHEDULE. I FLEW MORE HRS IN THE PAST MONTH THAN I EVER HAVE IN MY CAREER (130). MY JUDGEMENT WAS OFF AND I DIDN'T REALIZE THAT I WAS GOING TO LAND SHORT. ALSO; NO ONE COULD FIND THE AIRWORTHINESS CERTIFICATE IN THE ACFT; WE'RE NOT SURE WHAT HAPPENED TO IT. SUPPLEMENTAL INFO FROM ACN 285831: WE WERE TOLD THAT FO HIT THE LIP OF THE THRESHOLD. THAT IMPACT DESTROYED THE L GEAR; WHICH WAS NOT TILTED BACKWARDS AND PUNCTURED THE WING. THE R MAIN GEAR WAS STILL IN ITS POS BUT CRACKED AND ALSO PUNCTURED THE WING. AFTER TRYING THE EMER GEAR EXTENSION WE STILL ONLY HAD THE NOSE; AND THE R MAIN GEAR EXTENDED. WE EVACED THE ACFT.
