Narrative:A general aviation business flight, Cessna 182, N70586, crashed while executing a precision radar approach to Runway 9 at the Duluth International Airport, Minnesota. The aircraft was destroyed by impact forces and postimpact fire. Two passengers were killed. The pilot, the only other occupant of the aircraft, was seriously injured.
The National Transportation Safety Board determines that the probable cause of this accident was the action of the pilot in continuing operation in known icing conditions without aircraft deicing or anti-icing equipment, which resulted in a loss of control because of ice accretion on airframe surfaces.
