## Narrative

As the FAA filed it, in capitals; the FAA replaces private details with ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^.

(-23) THE AIRCRAFT CRASHED DURING AN ILS TO RUNWAY 02 AT THE KEENE/DILLANT-HOPKINS AIRPORT (EEN). THE AIRCRAFT WAS IN IMC CONDITIONS DURING THE APPROACH. THE WEATHER AT THE TIME WAS REPORTED TO BE 100' OVERCAST AND 1SM VISIBILITY. THE MULTIENGINE AIRCRAFT WAS IN A SINGLE-ENGINE CONFIGURATION FOR AN UNDETERMINED REASON. A WITNESS REPORTED THAT SHE OBSERVED THE AIRCRAFT ON THE APPROACH AND THE WINGS WERE ROCKING SUBSTANTIALLY AND SHE BELIEVED IF IT CONTINUED CLOSER TO THE RUNWAY A WING WOULD HAVE HIT THE GROUND. THE AIRCRAFT APPEARED TO HAVE CRASHED AFTER A LOSS OF DIRECTIONAL CONTROL (VMC ROLL). THE AIRCRAFT ROLLED OVER ONTO ITS BACK AND CAME TO REST ON THE RUNWAY APPROXIMATELY 60 FEET INSIDE THE RUNWAY 02 THRESHOLD AND RIGHT OF THE CENTERLINE OF THE RUNWAY. THE RIGHT ENGINE WAS FOUND TO BE SHUT DOWN (RIGHT ENGINE CONTROLS WERE FOUND TO BE: RIGHT CONDITION LEVER-LOW IDLE, RIGHT PROPELLER-FEATHERED, BOTH THROTTLES-MID TRAVEL, RIGHT FUEL VALVE-OFF). THE LEFT ENGINE APPEARED TO BE PRODUCING SUBSTANTIAL POWER (MID TO FULL POWER). THE PILOT DID NOT COMMUNICATE ANY PROBLEM WITH ATC AND DID NOT DECLARE AN EMERGENCY. THE WITNESS DESCRIBED THE ENGINE NOISE AS "UNUSUALLY LOUD" FOR A LANDING.

## The NTSB's investigation of this event (1)

From the NTSB's public API. Aircraft are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported serial number, make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model.

Probable cause: The pilot's improper decision to attempt a single-engine missed approach with the airplane in a slow airspeed, full flap configuration, which resulted in a minimum control speed (Vmc) roll.…
