Narrative:
On departure from teb we departed on runway 24. Prior to takeoff I briefed the teb 5 departure runway 24; maintain runway heading; 1500 ft till 4.5 DME; then turn right heading 280 degrees maintain 2000 ft. On departure I noticed an airliner on approach to ewr. I'm guessing that enough distraction to divert my attention from my leveloff altitude. When I looked down; I was 1500 ft and climbing. I could not stop the climb before hitting 1800 ft; and we were talking to a very unhappy controller. I have read about the problems with this departure and thought I was prepared to deal with it. If it had been solid IFR I don't think I would have made this blunder. Sometimes it only takes a small distraction to create a very critical situation.

Title: FLT CREW ON LJ45; DISTR BY EWR ACR TFC; FAIL TO COMPLY WITH 1500 FT MSL RESTR ON TEB DEP FROM RWY 24 AT TEB.
Narrative: ON DEP FROM TEB WE DEPARTED ON RWY 24. PRIOR TO TKOF I BRIEFED THE TEB 5 DEP RWY 24; MAINTAIN RWY HDG; 1500 FT TILL 4.5 DME; THEN TURN R HDG 280 DEGS MAINTAIN 2000 FT. ON DEP I NOTICED AN AIRLINER ON APCH TO EWR. I'M GUESSING THAT ENOUGH DISTR TO DIVERT MY ATTENTION FROM MY LEVELOFF ALT. WHEN I LOOKED DOWN; I WAS 1500 FT AND CLBING. I COULD NOT STOP THE CLB BEFORE HITTING 1800 FT; AND WE WERE TALKING TO A VERY UNHAPPY CTLR. I HAVE READ ABOUT THE PROBS WITH THIS DEP AND THOUGHT I WAS PREPARED TO DEAL WITH IT. IF IT HAD BEEN SOLID IFR I DON'T THINK I WOULD HAVE MADE THIS BLUNDER. SOMETIMES IT ONLY TAKES A SMALL DISTR TO CREATE A VERY CRITICAL SIT.
