| Confidence Rating: |  Accident investigation report completed and information captured |
A Mooney M20K crashed after 2 hours in holding due to bad weather at Saarbrucken-Ensheim Airport. The pilot carried out a missed ILS approach and crashed next to the runway.
Conclusions:
The accident is very likely due to the fact that after the pilot made the decision to initiate a missed approach procedure, it was not consistently executed, resulting in a loss of control of the aircraft. A contributing factor to this could have been the stress the pilot, who was flying alone, may have been under due to the high workload in the extremely poor weather conditions.
