Narrative:
On 3 mile final to runway 19 at teb I saw a drone approximately 200 feet below us and 1/4 mile in front. We passed over drone without deviating from localizer or glideslope. Reported drone immediately to tower. He responded that this is second sighting in 2 days. Made police report with local police. Drone was a twin rotor dark colored aircraft about 2-3 feet in length. It was in straight line with runway 19 approach course. It appeared to be hovering then moved toward us on a 015 heading.
