Narrative:
A Piper PA-46-350P Malibu Mirage JetProp DLX conversion, crashed while on approach to runway 08 at Goose Bay Airport (YYR/CYYR), Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada.
Strike damage on trees indicates the aircraft was on a final descent angle of 37° to the point of ground impact. Ground impact marks indicate the aircraft initially struck the road aligned with the extended centreline of CYYR Runway 08; aircraft damage indicates impact at a relatively level attitude. The left wing struck the base of a tree and the aircraft yawed, and travelled tail-first along the road. It came to rest about 14 m from the initial ground impact. The damage is consistent with a low-speed loss of control.
Both occupants were seriously injured airlifted to a hospital. One of the occupants later died of his injuries.

The aircraft’s weight was above the maximum take-off weight limitation; however, it could not be determined whether the aircraft loading contributed to the loss of control in this occurrence.
