- Date: January 19, 2005
- Aircraft: Gulfstream GII
- Location: Logan-Cache, Utah, United States
- Fatalities: 0
- Phase of flight: Approach and landing
- Cause: The pilot's improper IFR operation, including failure to follow the missed approach procedure and a poor evaluation of the weather, which led to a fog encounter and loss of visual reference to the runway during landing.
A Gulfstream GII operated by CFS Air was landing at Logan-Cache Airport in Utah after a failed GPS approach and missed approach. The crew circled for a visual approach in freezing fog, the aircraft entered the fog just before touchdown and drifted left onto a snow berm. The jet left the runway and the nose gear separated.
