Incident Overview
A pilot reported that the right engine began to lose power, prompting a diversion to Brevig, Alaska. During the arrival, the pilot was not satisfied with the approach and elected to perform a go-around. As the pilot advanced the throttles to full power, the right engine 'quit altogether,' according to the pilot's statement.
Sequence of Events
The pilot feathered the right propeller and retracted the landing gear and flaps in an attempt to maintain altitude. However, the pilot was unable to prevent the aircraft from settling to the ground. Subsequently, the pilot executed a landing on the tundra. Neither the aircraft nor the engines were recovered from the accident site.
Damage and Recovery
The aircraft sustained damage during the landing on the tundra. As the aircraft and its engines were not recovered, a detailed assessment of the damage and the engine failure was not possible. The exact extent of damage remains unknown.
