Apparent CFIT.

Bad one this.

Apparently it was CFIT.......Gear was apparently down and hit terrain on the descent.(8 nm's from touchdown).

Captain had approx 1000 hrs on 1900's and co-pilot had experience on 1900's.

For them both, it was their 3 tour for Airserve in the same area.

Weather was bad.

RIP both of you, your passion for flying and smiling faces will be remembered.

(Sorry, cannot post names for obvious reasons).
