Narrative:
I was in command of a gulfstream 4. We were cleared for takeoff via the dalton departure from teb airport (teb). As I have been based at teb for many yrs, I have flown this departure an estimated 100 times, and I flew this one in the same manner as all the others. Leaving 800 ft MSL I turned to a heading of 280 degrees maintaining VFR at 1300 ft MSL at 190 KTS. The departure controller told us that in the future we should 'tighten up the turn' because we had drifted into class B airspace. The only difference between this dalton departure and the numerous others I have flown is that at 800 ft MSL there was a tailwind of approximately 15 KTS which could have caused us to drift close to the class B airspace.

Title: A G4 PLT BLAMES HIS INTRUSION INTO THE EWR CLASS B WHILE DEPARTING TEB ON THE DALTON DEP ON A TAILWIND.
Narrative: I WAS IN COMMAND OF A GULFSTREAM 4. WE WERE CLRED FOR TKOF VIA THE DALTON DEP FROM TEB ARPT (TEB). AS I HAVE BEEN BASED AT TEB FOR MANY YRS, I HAVE FLOWN THIS DEP AN ESTIMATED 100 TIMES, AND I FLEW THIS ONE IN THE SAME MANNER AS ALL THE OTHERS. LEAVING 800 FT MSL I TURNED TO A HDG OF 280 DEGS MAINTAINING VFR AT 1300 FT MSL AT 190 KTS. THE DEP CTLR TOLD US THAT IN THE FUTURE WE SHOULD 'TIGHTEN UP THE TURN' BECAUSE WE HAD DRIFTED INTO CLASS B AIRSPACE. THE ONLY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THIS DALTON DEP AND THE NUMEROUS OTHERS I HAVE FLOWN IS THAT AT 800 FT MSL THERE WAS A TAILWIND OF APPROX 15 KTS WHICH COULD HAVE CAUSED US TO DRIFT CLOSE TO THE CLASS B AIRSPACE.
