What happened
During a flight lasting 5.1 hours, the pilot attempted an ILS approach in night IMC conditions. An initial missed approach was executed after the pilot deviated beyond established limits regarding both altitude and course. During a second ILS approach, while positioned between the Final Approach Fix (FAF) and the threshold, the aircraft suffered an engine failure.
Following the loss of engine power, the pilot allowed the aircraft to stall, which led to a steep nose-down impact with the ground in a left wing-leading attitude. There were no specific injury or fatality counts provided in the source material.
Prior to the flight, the pilot had planned an estimated time en route (ETE) of 3:45 and reported having 6:00 hours of fuel on board. However, throughout the trip, the aircraft encountered head winds ranging from 35 to 40 knots. On four separate occasions, air traffic controllers queried the pilot regarding sufficient fuel reserves to reach the destination. During the final leg of the flight, the pilot overflew at least three suitable alternate airports.
