The report documents a landing accident which caused the aircraft to be destroyed by subsequent ground fire. The National Transportation Safety Board determines that the probable cause of the accident was the decision of the pilot to initiate and continue an instrument approach under weather conditions which precluded adequate visual reference and the faulty techniques used by the pilot during the landing phase of that approach. The Board also finds that the flightcrew's nonadherence to prescribed operational practices and procedures compromised the safe operation of the flight. (Author)
