The pilot, sole on board, was completing a positioning flight from Nairobi to Shinyanga. On approach to Shinyanga-Ibadakuli Airport, he encountered poor visibility when the twin engine aircraft landed on the left side of the runway. It collided with edge marker, lost its nose gear and came to rest with its both propellers damaged. The pilot escaped uninjured and the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.
