Narrative:
The pilot of the Cessna 310 was joining the circuit at the Airdrie, AB airport. He was demonstrating a single-engine approach and landing for his passenger, and on downwind shut down the left engine and feathered the propeller.
Shortly thereafter the pilot selected the gear down and extended the flaps to 30 degrees.

The aircraft descended and full power on the remaining engine could not maintain altitude. The flaps and gear were retracte but the aircraft impacted a snow-covered field about 1 mile short of the runway threshold, resulting in substantial damage to the aircraft but no injuries to the 2 occupants.
