NTSB accident and incident record under N439AF
Aircraft on the NTSB record: Fairchild Swearingen SA227-AT · serial AT-439B
The pilot-in-command's failure to maintain proper glidepath alignment during an ILS approach in poor weather resulting in collision with trees and terrain. Contributing factors were the unreliable status of the primary (NAV 1) ILS receiver (leaving the pilot with only the secondary (NAV 2) ILS receiver), the low ceilings and trees.
