According to the pilot of Learjet N31MC, the airplane exited instrument conditions at 250 feet above ground level on approach to runway 30 at Renner Field (GLD, 5,499 feet by 100 feet, concrete), slightly left of the runway centerline. The pilot not flying took control of the airplane and adjusted the course to the right. The airplane rolled hard to the right and when the pilot corrected to the left, the airplane rolled hard to the left. The airplane impacted the ground in a right wing low attitude and came to rest on the west side of the runway, between the runway and a taxiway. Examination of the airplane revealed that the left outboard wing section separated approximately 3 feet from the wing tip tank.
Further examination and testing revealed anomalies with the yaw damper and spoileron computer.
