The flight crew attempted to land in below-minima weather conditions with low clouds and fog. The aircraft had to go around twice. On the third approach the pilot decided too late to go around again and the right wing collided with a tree top. The right engine was damaged and failed, causing the aircraft to lose speed. It stalled at a height of some 150 metres and crashed in a field near Stadnitsa.
