Unhappy

On landing, on the iced lake surface the aircraft touched down too far beyond the threshould of the cleared landing strip (appr.2.600 ft.). When the pilots realised the long landing, a go-around was initiated. The DC-3 climbed in a very steep angle and seconds later, the left wing stalled, the aircraft nosed over and impacted on the frozen lake surface.

Here is a link to a technical report on CASN:
