THE COMMERCIAL PILOT HAD JUST EXECUTED A MISSED APPROACH AT HIS DESTINATION AIRPORT, AND REQUESTED AN ILS APPROACH TO A NEARBY AIRPORT. DURING THE ILS, HE OBSERVED OFF FLAGS ON THE GLIDE SLOPE, AND TRANSITIONED TO A LOCALIZER APPROACH. HE BROKE OUT OF THE WEATHER, AND ATTEMPTED TO LAND ON RUNWAY 24. HE WAS UNABLE TO STOP THE AIRCRAFT IN THE REMAINING RUNWAY DISTANCE. THE AIRCRAFT OVERRAN THE RUNWAY, COLLIDED WITH A FENCE, AND CAME TO REST AGAINST AN EMBANKMENT. WITNESSES OBSERVED THE AIRCRAFT DIVING TOWARD THE RUNWAY PRIOR TO TOUCHDOWN, AND A FLIGHT SERVICE STATION SUPERVISOR ESTIMATED THAT THE AIRCRAFT TOUCHED DOWN AT THE 1,800 FOOT REMAINING POINT ON THE 6,400 FOOT LONG RUNWAY.
Probable Cause: THE PILOT'S FAILURE TO ATTAIN A PROPER TOUCHDOWN POINT DURING THE TRANSITION TO LANDING, WHICH RESULTED IN A LONG LANDING AND OVERRUN. FACTORS WERE THE LOW CEILINGS AND FOG WHICH PREVAILED AT THE TIME OF THE ACCIDENT.
