The airplane was on short final to land on runway 34 when it encountered heavy rain, which reduced forward visibility. The pilot continued the landing, and during the landing roll, the airplane drifted right and the right wing contacted brush and trees. The airplane departed the right side of the 1,700-foot-long x 50-foot-wide runway.
PROBABLE CAUSE: "The pilots decision to continue the landing into adverse weather conditions and failure to maintain runway alignment. A factor
was the rain shower which resulted in reduced forward visibility." Fuentes:
