Approach and Go-Around Attempt
During the approach to land, the pilot executed S-turns to ensure proper spacing from a preceding airplane. On short final, the pilot decided to go around because the runway was still not clear. However, he reported a lack of response concerning the power, leading him to abandon the go-around and land as originally planned.
Alignment and Impact
Attempting to align the airplane with the runway centerline, the pilot's efforts were unsuccessful. The right wing and landing gear struck the ground, causing the right landing gear to collapse. The airplane skidded off the right side of the runway.
Post-Impact Fire
During the accident sequence, the outward portion of the right wing was torn away from the airplane, and a fuel line was ruptured. A ground fire erupted and burned through the right side of the airplane's structure and right wing.
Mechanical Examination
No preimpact part failure or malfunction was reported.
Investigation Conclusion
The official investigation identified the probable cause as the pilot's improper in-flight planning/decision and his failure to attain proper runway alignment.
