Procedure; Airspace Structure
A Challenger 300 was on an ILS approach to Runway 19; ten north of the field when he checked in and was issued traffic that was two miles away VFR at 2;300 FT. From my knowledge that VFR target was not in contact with any air traffic control facility; because he was outside of Teterboro's Class D and outside of New York's Class B. He was squawking a 1200 code. The Challenger did not see the target and continued on the approach. He was again called traffic as the targets continued to converge. He received an RA and was forced to descend to 1;900 FT to keep clear of the traffic. He resumed the ILS approach and climbed back up to 2;000 FT when the traffic was no longer a factor. Upon landing the Challenger was asked if he saw the traffic and he responded saying the aircraft was too fast and too close; and he seemed flustered. I would recommend that Teterboro Airport gain control of the airspace north of Teterboro airport. Aircraft flying within this airspace can currently maintain VFR conditions without ever speaking to any air traffic control facility; causing these IFR aircraft to maneuver off instrument approaches to avoid them. First and foremost this is a concern of safety. Aircraft lingering on the Runway 19 final is very common and situations like this occur too often. Sometimes aircraft do not immediately switch to the Tower frequency when advised by Approach; so when a Conflict Alert is received the Tower may believe that the Approach Controller is issuing the necessary traffic; when the aircraft is on the Tower frequency. These aircraft are in a critical phase of flight and should not have to deal with uncontrolled aircraft on their final.
TEB Controller described a conflict event between an IFR ILS 19 aircraft an an unknown VFR aircraft clear of restricted airspace. The reporter noted this type of event is common during Runway 19 operations because of the current airspace configurations.
