On August 13, 2014, about 1003 hours local, a Cessna 560 XL, Brazilian Registration PR-AFA, impacted a densely populated residential area, first colliding with a building then the ground in Santos, SP, Brazil, following an approach to Base Aerea De Santos (SBST), Guaruja, SP, Brazil. The airline transport pilot, airline transport co-pilot, and 5 passengers were fatally injured. The airplane was destroyed by impact and a postcrash fire. Multiple adjacent buildings sustained impact and fire damage; there were 3 minor ground injuries. Instrument meteorological conditions prevailed at the time. The airplane was owned by Cessna Finance Export Corporation, leased to and operated by AF Andrade Empr. E Participacoes Ltda., on an instrument flight rules flight plan under Brazil Part 91 regulations. The flight originated about 0922 from Santos Dumont Airport (SBRJ), Rio De Janeiro, RJ, Brazil. The purpose of the flight was to transport a Brazil Presidential candidate to SBST, where approximately 8 to 10 people were waiting for the flight's arrival. According to preliminary air traffic control information, after takeoff the flight proceeded towards SBST. At 0955:21, while in contact with Sao Paulo Approach Control flying at 6,700 feet approximately 13 nautical miles southeast of SBST, a flightcrew member advised the controller that they had visual reference and requested frequency change. The flightcrew member did not cancel the IFR clearance. The controller approved the frequency change and provided the airport radio frequency for SBST; however, there were no instructions regarding the NDB approach. The flight proceeded in a west-southwesterly direction then turned to a north-northwesterly direction and proceeded towards the Santos non-directional beacon (NDB) identified as SAT, which is the final approach fix for the runway 35 NDB approach. The airplane continued towards the SAT NDB where due to radar coverage limitations, the airplane was lost from radar about 0959:43. The airplane at that time was flying at 2,600 feet, the groundspeed was 175 knots, and the airplane was located south-southeast of the SAT NDB. A pilot-rated witness on the airport near the departure end of runway 35 waiting for the arrival reported the weather conditions consisted of light rain which began at 0840, and the wind was from the south at 8 to 12 knots. The witness who was inside a building adjacent to the ramp heard a radio call from a flightcrew member, and reported hearing a sound from the engines consistent with a go-around. The witness went outside on the ramp where he first observed the airplane near the departure end of runway 35. The airplane was below the base of the clouds in a wings level attitude with the landing gear retracted. The airplane banked to the left between 15 and 20 degrees, and after clearing cranes that are located less than 1 nautical mile west of the runway, he diverted his attention and went inside. The airplane was viewed on radar at 1002:30; the airplane at that time was approximately 1.2 nautical miles west-southwest of SBST. The airplane flew in a southerly direction, and was not observed on radar after 1002:31; the next sweep was 1002:36. Witnesses near the accident site reported observing the airplane in a nose low and left wing low attitude, followed by a roll to wings level, then the airplane returned to left wing and nose-low attitude. The airplane impacted in a densely populated residential and commercial area. A surface observation taken at SBST on the day of the accident at 1000, or approximately 3 minutes before the accident indicates that the wind was from 230 degrees at 7 knots, the visibility was 3000 meters with moderate rain and mist. Broken clouds existed at 800 feet, and overcast clouds existed at 3,200 feet. The temperature and dew point were 19 and 18 degrees Celsius, respectively, and the altimeter setting was 1022 hectopascals. The investigation is under the jurisdiction of the Government of Brazil.
