Incident Overview
On approach to Kostanay-Narimanovka Airport, a twin-engine aircraft experienced a left engine issue. The crew shut down the left engine and feathered its propeller. They did not inform air traffic control (ATC) of the situation for reasons unknown. The aircraft continued the approach in that condition.
Sequence of Events
At an altitude of 400 meters and approximately 12 km from the airport, the left engine problem occurred. Later, during final approach, the crew received a go-around instruction from ATC for unknown reasons. In visibility of 3,000 meters, the crew applied power to the right engine and initiated a go-around. During this maneuver, the aircraft lost height and crashed 162 meters from the runway threshold and 477 meters left of the extended centerline. The aircraft then slid for several dozen meters onto the apron, where it collided with a parked Antonov AN-24.
Aftermath
All 23 occupants of the aircraft escaped uninjured. However, both the aircraft and the parked Antonov AN-24 were damaged beyond repair.
