A Gulfstream V executive jet just became the latest aircraft to suffer issues and wreck with many people aboard. Luckily, nobody was harmed this time around.
Two Jewish families from Brooklyn, New York, are safe and unharmed after the aircraft skidded off the runway while landing at Cabo San Lucas International Airport on Thursday afternoon.
The aircraft traveling from New York to Mexico became the second aviation incident in 24 hours after a helicopter plummeted in the Hudson River, killing six people on board, including three children.
Footage on social media shows the Gulfstream V long-range aircraft skidding off the Cabo San Lucas International Airport runway.
Part of the plane had been severed in the landing.

Rickie Fowler Is Connected To The Same Type of Puma Jet That Skidded Off The Runway
A Gulfstream V executive jet skidded off a Cabo San Lucas International Airport runway and is somehow connected to professional golfer Rickie Fowler.
Rickie Fowler and Allison Stokke got married in 2019 and celebrated in style, riding a special aircraft to their honeymoon.
Just a couple of weeks after posting photos of their wedding in Cabo, the duo posted about their honeymoon in October 2019, which showed them landing in a private jet.
The Action Network’s Darren Rovell reported at the time that Puma lent its star golfer the company’s Gulfstream V for their flight to their honeymoon.

The jet that they used seats up to 14 passengers, and it is said to be perfect for international travel.
According to the website, it has two 17″ Cabin Flat Panel Displays, eight 5.6″ Swing Arm LCD Monitors, an inflight phone, a conference Table, and a fully enclosed lavatory.
