Yeah, I do. Seems like the guy just made one mistake after another. With only about 360 hours of jet time he should have been with an experienced co-pilot. According to the NTSB report, he had the Airport/Facility directory with him and the airport diagram attached to his control column that clearly stated that the airport was closed to jet traffic. Also, the runway is about 2500 feet long. At the airplanes weight at the time of impact he needed at least 3,000 feet of runway, and with a tailwind he needed 3,500 feet.
Also, apparently they guy confuse AIY with ACY. Two different airports. He was cleared for ACY and had charts out for AIY.
Here is the report:

I actually found all of this info on Airliners.net Citation Becomes A Power Boat Tech Ops Forum | Airliners.net
However I had previously posted the picture of the shirtless citation pilot on the COOL pics thread. Then I began putting 2 and 2 together, and when I saw that Airliners.net thread it all made sense.
I believe he owns a Radar company in Denmark. I think his name is Erik Larsen. I could be wrong.
This is just too funny though.
