Circumstances:
Maybe following a wrong approach configuration, the airplane landed long and too far down the runway. Unable to stop within the remaining distance, it overran, struck several obstacles and came to rest into a ravine bordering a marsh. There were no casualties but the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.
