Incident Overview
An aircraft experienced a wing drag event during landing in instrument meteorological conditions. The pilot had broken out of clouds misaligned with the runway. As airspeed decayed during the transition from instrument flight rules to visual flight rules, the co-pilot took control of the aircraft, believing he could see the runway better.
Sequence of Events
While lowering the nose and correcting the aircraft for landing, the aircraft stalled approximately 5 feet above ground level. Consequently, the right wing dragged along the runway surface. Despite the wing strike, the aircraft landed on the runway centerline and rolled out normally.
Crew Actions and Aftermath
The flight crew remained unaware of the wing drag until a passenger inquired about sparks emanating from the right wing. The co-pilot stated that he thought the situation would have worsened had he not taken control when he did.
