Marietta Ohio Accident

Video on treaders link interesting, head the warning though.

Weather at the time, not real low, RIP.

Code:

KPKB 181150Z 26006KT 10SM OVC013 03/01 A2981 RMK AO2

Code:

KPKB 181053Z 26003KT 10SM OVC014 03/01 A2980 RMK AO2 SLP094 T00330006

Discussions on other forums have ATC comms, it sounds like the plane was in visual conditions prior to landing just before the accident, no distress calls made by the pilots.

LNAV MDA is 1240’ MSL according to the approach plate which equals 383 AGL.
They should have seen the field from about 3 miles out when breaking out of cloud.
The crash location is apparently also about 3NM from the airport.
Tailplane icing possibly?
