Narrative:

Inbound to the cdw airport, ATC notified all airborne aircraft that teb was closed. Morristown runways were considered after receiving the cdw ATIS, but cdw runway 27 was the best option of all local airfields for the winds. Arrived at cdw for landing via localizer runway 22, circle runway 27 for winds. Initial approach to runway 27 was for assessment only. Thus, a go around was performed and a second approach was made, but since fuel was not an issue, a second go around was made with hopes that winds would improve. On the third approach, the approach was demanding, but tryable. On landing, normal stopping procedures were used with maximum propellers and sufficient reverse were used. However, steering became an issue as rudder became ineffectual to control the ATIS/tower reported winds. Stopping was not an issue but tracking was the issue, so I decided to let the aircraft roll straight to prevent any major nose gear damage. Supplemental information from acn 639202: off runway with only left main gear in the mud. Immediately we evacuate/evacuationed the aircraft with no damage or personal injury.

Title: A P180 AVANTI LEAVES THE RWY AT CDW AFTER LNDG IN WINDS THAT REQUIRED 2 PREVIOUS GARS BEFORE A LNDG WAS MADE ONLY TO LOSE CTL ON THE ROLLOUT LEAVING 1 MAIN GEAR STUCK IN THE MUD.

Narrative: INBOUND TO THE CDW ARPT, ATC NOTIFIED ALL AIRBORNE ACFT THAT TEB WAS CLOSED. MORRISTOWN RWYS WERE CONSIDERED AFTER RECEIVING THE CDW ATIS, BUT CDW RWY 27 WAS THE BEST OPTION OF ALL LCL AIRFIELDS FOR THE WINDS. ARRIVED AT CDW FOR LNDG VIA LOC RWY 22, CIRCLE RWY 27 FOR WINDS. INITIAL APCH TO RWY 27 WAS FOR ASSESSMENT ONLY. THUS, A GAR WAS PERFORMED AND A SECOND APCH WAS MADE, BUT SINCE FUEL WAS NOT AN ISSUE, A SECOND GAR WAS MADE WITH HOPES THAT WINDS WOULD IMPROVE. ON THE THIRD APCH, THE APCH WAS DEMANDING, BUT TRYABLE. ON LNDG, NORMAL STOPPING PROCS WERE USED WITH MAX PROPS AND SUFFICIENT REVERSE WERE USED. HOWEVER, STEERING BECAME AN ISSUE AS RUDDER BECAME INEFFECTUAL TO CTL THE ATIS/TWR RPTED WINDS. STOPPING WAS NOT AN ISSUE BUT TRACKING WAS THE ISSUE, SO I DECIDED TO LET THE ACFT ROLL STRAIGHT TO PREVENT ANY MAJOR NOSE GEAR DAMAGE. SUPPLEMENTAL INFO FROM ACN 639202: OFF RWY WITH ONLY L MAIN GEAR IN THE MUD. IMMEDIATELY WE EVACED THE ACFT WITH NO DAMAGE OR PERSONAL INJURY.
