A Cessna T207 carrying a pilot and two passengers flew VFR into fog and low cloud near Homer, Alaska and collided at high speed with the north cliff face of a remote island. The flight was not filed and the pilot had been told the weather looked poor. All three occupants were killed and a post-crash fire destroyed the cockpit and cabin.
