Fog, failed approach: Inside moments before Alaska charter plane crash that killed 8
A Cessna 441 aircraft crashed near a remote military runway in western Alaska.
All eight people aboard perished when the plane attempted a second landing in dense fog.
Visibility was extremely poor, forcing an initial landing attempt to be aborted by the pilots.
The aircraft was operating for Anchorage-based Security Aviation when the accident occurred.
Investigators are now examining the wreckage and the circumstances surrounding the fatal crash.
