- Date: March 14, 2020
- Aircraft: Hawker 800XP
- Location: Scottsdale, Arizona, United States
- Fatalities: 0
- Phase of flight: Approach and landing
- Cause: Pilot's inability to maintain directional control during landing for undetermined reasons, resulting in a runway excursion
A Hawker 800XP landing at Scottsdale veered to the right during the landing roll despite full left rudder and ran off the runway into large rocks between the runway and taxiway. Both pilots were uninjured and the aircraft was substantially damaged. The NTSB could not determine why directional control was lost; the nosewheel steering showed no fault, and a worn, under inflated left nosewheel tire could not be tied to the event.
