NTSB Narrative Summary Released at Completion of Accident

The twin-engine airplane impacted terrain while maneuvering following a go-around and subsequent loss of control just north of its destination airport.

An autopsy was performed on the 67-year old commercial pilot, which revealed that his death was caused by atherosclerotic coronary artery disease.
