(-23) While on approach to runway 23 at Akron-Canton Regional Airport, aircraft N9299N received substantial damage on impact with terrain.

The airplane was inbound from the outer marker when ATC advised N9299N that it was left of course. ATC asked if N9299N would like to be resequenced and N9299N responded by transmitting correcting. The airplane altitude was still about 3200 feet. ATC then advised N9299N that it was well left of the localizer and if it would like to be resequenced. N9299N responded by transmitting that it would like to correct. N9299N was about two miles from the airport when it then transmitted if a 360-degree turn could be executed. ATC then instructed N9299N to climb and maintain 3,000 feet and queried N9299N'S present heading. N9299N transmitted, heading due north and climbing. N9299N then declared an emergency.
