Circumstances:
The approach to Navegantes-Itajaí Airport was completed in a visibility limited to 500 meters due to foggy conditions. The airplane landed about 460 meters past the runway threshold. After touchdown, the airplane became unstable, veered to the right and collided with runway lights. The nose gear and the right main gear collapsed and the airplane came to rest. Both pilots were uninjured while the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.
