A Fokker 50 made a flight from Amsterdam Schiphol Airport to Groningen Airport Eelde. After executing a visual approach to runway 05, the aircraft landed long (approximately halfway along the runway) and at high speed. The crew was unable to stop the aircraft within the remaining runway length. Subsequently, it ran off the end of the runway and came to a halt in the grass. None of the fourteen persons on board was injured. The aircraft sustained minor damage.
