Procedure; Human Factors
Landing ILS 19 at Teterboro on ferry leg so our weight was light and we were able to land and clear the runway at taxiway 'G'. This also helped the landing aircraft behind us landing on runway 19 as well. Tower instructed us to turn right on Golf and contact ground. We cleared at Golf; cleared the hold short bars and stopped with the nose of the aircraft protruding onto taxiway 'L'. With a landing aircraft behind us; Tower instructing us to clear at Golf; we assured our aircraft was clear of the runway. To the right of us; taxiing south was a twin engine Baron that was stopped. We contacted ground control; stating clear of runway at Golf for [FBO]. Ground Control advised us that he had to stop the taxiing Baron because our nose was in Taxiway 'L'. He re-issued us to taxi to [FBO] without further incident. In the Airman Information Manual; Section 4-3-20; exiting runway after landing. It states in this section:'...the pilot is expected to taxi clear of the landing runway by taxiing beyond the runway holding position markings associated with the landing runway; even if that requires the aircraft to protrude into or cross another taxiway or ramp area. Once all parts of the aircraft have crossed the runway holding position markings; the pilot must hold unless further instructions have been issued by ATC.'We did clear and safely stopped from our perspective clear of the hold short bars. After the fact; we looked at the distance from the hold short bars on 'G' to taxiway 'L' is approximately 60 feet. The Citation XLS is 52+ feet long; being a landing aircraft was behind us; Tower instructing us to clear at golf. The Citation XLS barely fits in that short space.Viewing the airport diagram as well as a [top] view of the intersections runway 19; G; L will give an excellent perspective of the very small space [at] which all of these intersect.
The Excel is approximately 53 feet long; and like most aircraft; the tail is not visible from the cockpit. I cannot determine with much precision exactly where I'll need to stop to clear the tail from the runway; so I erred on the side of caution to ensure the plane was clear for the aircraft landing behind us. Our intention was to avoid a traffic conflict; not create one.Further; if there was a conflict that necessitated our holding short of Taxiway L; the Tower should have given us instructions to mitigate it before handing us over to Ground. Note 1 at the bottom of AIM 4-3-20 says; 'The tower will issue instructions required to resolve any potential conflictions with other ground traffic prior to advising the pilot to contact ground control.' No such instructions were given to us before we were handed off.I believe our turning onto Taxiway G may have been a surprise to the ground controller; since normally our speed and landing distance require an exit at Taxiway J. Because of our light weight; we were slow enough to turn earlier; and Tower instructed us to do so as we approached Taxiway G.I believe a review of local procedures with respect to the AIM might benefit both parties. Had Tower simply instructed us to give way to the southbound [Barron] as we exited; or kept us rolling to Taxiway J for the exit; this whole event could have been avoided.
