Read the full NTSB narrative

THE ACFT OVERRAN THE RWY END DURING A NIGHT IMC LANDING. THE PLT STATED 'THE DESCENT WAS STEEP' AND 'I FIRST TOUCHED DOWN 1/2 WAY DOWN THE 7000-FT RWY.' HE ALSO STATED THAT, 'I DECIDE TO PLANT THE ACFT ON THE RWY SO I COULD GET ON THE REVERSERS AND GET IT STOPPED. WE HIT THE RWY EXTREMELY HARD AND THE ACFT BEGAN TO PORPOISE. 'THE PLT THAN RETRACTED THE GEAR FOR A GO-AROUND BUT THE ENGINES DID NOT SPOOL UP AND THE ACFT LANDED WHEELS-UP OFF THE END OF THE RUNWAY.
