Narrative:
A Cessna 750 Citation X jet, N85AV, sustained substantial damage when it suffered a runway excursion during a landing attempt on runway 32 at Monmouth Executive Airport (BLM/KBLM), Belmar, New Jersey.
Both pilots were not injured.
The aircraft exited off the left of the runway beyond the taxiway. The airplane came to rest upright, the nose and left gear collapsed, the fuselage sustained extensive damage, as well as both wings.
Probable cause: The pilots loss of directional control while landing in gusting wind conditions which resulted in a runway excursion. Also contributing was the flight crews decision to land at an airport where there was a rapidly approaching severe thunderstorm.
