Rockwell Grand Commander 690

On final approach to the Sepahua Airstrip, the captain noticed a thin layer of mist over the runway and decided to make a low pass to assess the situation. While passing over the runway at low height, he lost control of the airplane that rolled to the right then overturned and eventually crashed in a river located near the runway end. One pilot was injured and the second was killed.
