Narrative:As the pilot and copilot of the business jet were conducting an instrument approach to runway 09 at San Juan-Fernando Luis Ribas Dominicci Airport, Puerto Rico. As the airplane was about to touch down, the pilot reduced the engine power. The airplane then descended and landed hard on a grassy area short of the runway threshold. The fuselage sustained substantial damage. The pilot reported that there were no preaccident mechanical malfunctions or failures with the airplane what would have precluded normal operation.
Probable Cause: The pilot's failure to maintain a proper descent rate during landing, which resulted in a hard landing short of the runway.
