On final approach to Warsaw-Okecie Airport runway 33 by night, the pilot reported engine problems when the aircraft lost height and crashed in the district of Mysiadło, about six km short of runway threshold. All four occupants were injured and there were no victims on the ground. The aircraft was destroyed. It was reported that both engines lost power on approach, maybe after being taken over by frost. At the time of the accident, icing conditions were present in Warsaw.
