The Beech 200 (registration C-FSKQ, serial number BB-99) operated by SkyJet M.G. Inc., with 2 pilots and 4 passengers on board, conducted a medical evacuation flight according to instrument flight rules, between La Romaine Airport and Sept-Îles Airport in Quebec. While the aircraft was approximately 5 nautical miles from landing on Runway 09 at Sept-Îles, one of the passengers informed the flight crew that there was smoke in the cabin. The crew switched off the fluorescent lights in the cabin, the ordinance lights and the two air bleed systems. The smoke appeared to dissipate. The aircraft touched down at 1239, Eastern Standard Time, and taxied to the company's facilities. Once the aircraft came to a stop, some smoke reappeared. Emergency services were alerted. The crew was unable to locate the source of the fire until it became visible from outside the cabin, on the top left of the fuselage. The crew extinguished the fire using portable fire extinguishers. There were no injuries. The aircraft was significantly damaged.
