Narrative:

Departed runway 4 at redmond, started left climbing turn toward VOR. Captain stated we had a #2 wing overheat indication. The indication was steady. I called bleed air off, and reached down to turn #2 bleed off, gear down, time start. Wing overheat steady emergency checklist requested. The steady indication went to flashing. I called for the #2 generator off, time start, wing overheat and flashing emergency checklist. Captain turned #2 generator off, started time, brought the landing gear up, and continued with the flashing emergency checklist. We were northwest of the redmond airport, the conditions were marginal VFR. I asked captain to keep his eye on the airport, and made a call to rdm FSS that we were returning to the airport for landing. Captain said he did not have the airport in sight and instructed me to proceed to bodey NDB. I continued my left turn to proceed direct bodey. Approximately heading, 090 degrees. I tuned in the localizer and checked identify. I continued toward bodey looking for redmond airport to my right. I did not see it. Captain continued with the emergency checklist. Our 3 min time had expired. Captain put his had on #2 stop and feather and called #2 stop and feather. I looked down to verify his hand position and called pull. Captain continued with the engine fail checklist, and as he continued with the non memory items, reading them aloud and placing his hand on the controls, I verified his hand on the proper controls and made calls per the checklist. While watching captain's hand, station passage occurred. I looked up and saw runway 10 at prineville airport. I did not know it was prineville, but I did know it was not redmond. I said, 'I have a runway in sight.' in my judgement it looked plenty long enough and there was no 'X' on the runway. For safety's sake, since I had a suitable runway straight ahead, turning back to try and see redmond airport did not seem the wise thing to do, so I started an approach. The landing was uneventful. Looking at the wing I saw no indication of smoke or fire. We taxied off the runway and parked near the FBO. Captain made the announcement to the passenger that we had landed at bend, got out of his seat, instructed me to remain with the passenger and checked the wing. Since it was raining, he decided to keep the passenger aboard.

Title: COMMUTER SMT DID AN INFLT ENGINE SHUT DOWN AFTER TKOF DUE WING OVERHEAT, THEN LANDED AT WRONG ARPT.

Narrative: DEPARTED RWY 4 AT REDMOND, STARTED LEFT CLBING TURN TOWARD VOR. CAPT STATED WE HAD A #2 WING OVERHEAT INDICATION. THE INDICATION WAS STEADY. I CALLED BLEED AIR OFF, AND REACHED DOWN TO TURN #2 BLEED OFF, GEAR DOWN, TIME START. WING OVERHEAT STEADY EMER CHKLIST REQUESTED. THE STEADY INDICATION WENT TO FLASHING. I CALLED FOR THE #2 GENERATOR OFF, TIME START, WING OVERHEAT AND FLASHING EMER CHKLIST. CAPT TURNED #2 GENERATOR OFF, STARTED TIME, BROUGHT THE LNDG GEAR UP, AND CONTINUED WITH THE FLASHING EMER CHKLIST. WE WERE NW OF THE REDMOND ARPT, THE CONDITIONS WERE MARGINAL VFR. I ASKED CAPT TO KEEP HIS EYE ON THE ARPT, AND MADE A CALL TO RDM FSS THAT WE WERE RETURNING TO THE ARPT FOR LNDG. CAPT SAID HE DID NOT HAVE THE ARPT IN SIGHT AND INSTRUCTED ME TO PROCEED TO BODEY NDB. I CONTINUED MY LEFT TURN TO PROCEED DIRECT BODEY. APPROX HDG, 090 DEGS. I TUNED IN THE LOC AND CHKED IDENT. I CONTINUED TOWARD BODEY LOOKING FOR REDMOND ARPT TO MY RIGHT. I DID NOT SEE IT. CAPT CONTINUED WITH THE EMER CHKLIST. OUR 3 MIN TIME HAD EXPIRED. CAPT PUT HIS HAD ON #2 STOP AND FEATHER AND CALLED #2 STOP AND FEATHER. I LOOKED DOWN TO VERIFY HIS HAND POS AND CALLED PULL. CAPT CONTINUED WITH THE ENG FAIL CHKLIST, AND AS HE CONTINUED WITH THE NON MEMORY ITEMS, READING THEM ALOUD AND PLACING HIS HAND ON THE CONTROLS, I VERIFIED HIS HAND ON THE PROPER CONTROLS AND MADE CALLS PER THE CHKLIST. WHILE WATCHING CAPT'S HAND, STATION PASSAGE OCCURRED. I LOOKED UP AND SAW RWY 10 AT PRINEVILLE ARPT. I DID NOT KNOW IT WAS PRINEVILLE, BUT I DID KNOW IT WAS NOT REDMOND. I SAID, 'I HAVE A RWY IN SIGHT.' IN MY JUDGEMENT IT LOOKED PLENTY LONG ENOUGH AND THERE WAS NO 'X' ON THE RWY. FOR SAFETY'S SAKE, SINCE I HAD A SUITABLE RWY STRAIGHT AHEAD, TURNING BACK TO TRY AND SEE REDMOND ARPT DID NOT SEEM THE WISE THING TO DO, SO I STARTED AN APCH. THE LNDG WAS UNEVENTFUL. LOOKING AT THE WING I SAW NO INDICATION OF SMOKE OR FIRE. WE TAXIED OFF THE RWY AND PARKED NEAR THE FBO. CAPT MADE THE ANNOUNCEMENT TO THE PAX THAT WE HAD LANDED AT BEND, GOT OUT OF HIS SEAT, INSTRUCTED ME TO REMAIN WITH THE PAX AND CHKED THE WING. SINCE IT WAS RAINING, HE DECIDED TO KEEP THE PAX ABOARD.
