Beechcraft 60 Duke

The twin engine aircraft departed Montes Claros Airport at 1200LT on a flight to Goiânia, carrying one passenger and one pilot. As he started the descent to Goiânia Airport, the pilot reported the failure of the left engine and requested the permission to proceed with a direct approach to runway 32 despite the runway 14 was in use. Few seconds later, the right engine failed as well. The pilote reduced his altitude and attempted an emergency landing when the aircraft crashed in an open field located near Silvânia, about 50 km east of Goiânia Airport. On impact, the fixing points of the seat belts broke away, causing both occupants to impact the instrument panel. The aircraft was severely damaged and both occupants were killed.
