The Beechcraft 200 Super King Air, operated by Keewatin Air, on a medevac flight, departed Winnipeg International Airport, Canada for Churchill Airport. Unconfirmed rumours suggest that the aircraft suffered a loss of power in both engines.
The flight crew attempted to reach Gillam Airport for an emergency landing. The aircraft touched down on the surface of a frozen lake, just short of the runway. It impacted the upsloping shoreline causing both main landing gear legs to separate. The aircraft continued and slid on the runway. The two pilots and two medical staff were not injured.
