Rocky Mountain Airways, Inc., Flight 10, Aero Commander 680V, N6395U, crashed at approximately 0806 mountain standard time, January 22, 1970, near Aspen, Colorado. The aircraft struck obstructing terrain after the pilot discontinued an approach to land because of an ice accumulation on the windshield of the aircraft. The National Transportation Safety Board determines that the probable cause of this accident was the pilot's use of other than the recommended procedures for a go-around following the discontinuance of a landing approach. The landing approach was discontinued, and a go-around attempted because the aircraft was too high to attempt a straight-in approach. The ice accumulation on the windshield obscured the obstructing terrain. (Author)
