Two crew members were ferry flying N953EF from Wick (Scotland) to Reykjavik (Iceland) with no passengers.
The aircraft had been cleared for visual approach and the weather at Reykjavik Airport was CAVOK.
Just prior to landing, the PF accidentally lifted the power lever lock for both engines and moved the power levers into ground idle. The aircraft instantly lost its lift, hit the runway hard and the left main landing gear collapsed.
