Circumstances:
Following an uneventful flight from Miami-Executive (Kendall-Tamiami) Airport, the pilot started the approach to Houston-William P. Hobby Airport Runway 04 at 1058LT. Four minutes later, he initiated a go around procedure and a circuit before starting a second approach to land. After touchdown, the airplane deviated to the left and veered off runway in a grassy area. In soft ground, the airplane lost its nose gear then slid for few dozen metres before coming to rest with its right wing severely damaged. All six occupants escaped uninjured.
