Summary
An aircraft operating under an IFR clearance cancelled that clearance near the destination airport. The pilot reported 20 miles of visibility beneath an overcast layer while approaching the airport. After flying over the runway, the pilot entered a left downwind leg. On short final at approximately 250 feet above ground, fog was observed beneath the aircraft.
Sequence of Events
The aircraft descended into the fog. The pilot increased power and began a left turn to execute a missed approach. However, a climb was not initiated prior to the turn, and the flaps were retracted at low speed. The aircraft subsequently struck trees and then stalled. During the resulting uncontrolled descent, the aircraft collided with two houses before coming to rest in a backyard.
Condition and Location
No further details about the aircraft, occupants, or injuries are provided in the source. The accident occurred near the destination airport, but the specific location is not stated. Weather conditions included an overcast ceiling and visibility of 20 miles beneath it, with fog observed at 250 feet on final approach.
