Read the full NTSB narrative
The twin-engine airplane impacted terrain while maneuvering following a go-around and subsequent loss of control just north of its destination airport. Witnesses observed the airplane initiating two go-arounds before departing the airport traffic pattern. On-scene examination of the wreckage did not reveal any airplane anomalies. An autopsy was performed on the 67-year old commercial pilot, which revealed that his death was caused by atherosclerotic coronary artery disease.
