Narrative:
The Cessna 525B CitationJet CJ3 suffered a runway excursion during a landing attempt on runway 22 in gusting wind conditions at Caldwell Wright Airport (CDW/KCDW), New Jersey. The aircraft touched down beyond the midpoint of the runway, overran and came to a stop in a drainage ditch. There were no injuries.

N225SC radioed KCDW coming from the west at 2500' requesting a visual approach to RWY 22. KCDW Tower instructed N225SC to enter a right Downwind for 22, relayed Winds were 330 at 18 G 26, and stated that in the previous 10 min, a Cirrus PIREP on final for RWY 28 was +/- 10 kts. Pilot reported back "We'll keep our eyes on it." When N225SC called Downwind for RWY 22, KCDW Tower gave clearance to land on RWY 22 with following conditions: Wind 280 at 19 G 26. After N225SC acknowledged, KCDW Tower added that Gusts were currently 26. Then, KCDW Tower calls "5SC, you ok?" The plane radios back, "We're ok. Everyone is getting off the plane. No fire."
