What happened
During an approach into Homer under unfavorable weather conditions, the pilot was conducting a flight under Visual Flight Rules (VFR). Upon making contact with a runway surface covered in snow, slush, and ice, the aircraft type lost directional control. The plane subsequently drifted off the paved surface and stopped in soft terrain.
There were zero fatalities and zero injuries among the five people on board during the incident. However, the impact caused the aircraft to be a total loss.
Findings
Investigations into the event highlighted that the pilot proceeded with VFR operations despite encountering adverse weather. The primary factor in the excursion was that the pilot failed to execute a go-around after miscalculating the necessary speed, altitude, and distance during the approach.
