Narrative:
We were cleared to land on runway 4L. While on the base leg, the tower changed our instructions to land on runway 4R. A B737 had landed about 1-2 mins ago on runway 4R. At 500 ft, we entered a modified base for runway 4R and encountered either the B737's wake turbulence or possibly windshear. Our aircraft tipped nearly 60 degrees before I could bring it back to wings level. The landing was successful and uneventful. Windshear advisories were not provided, however, the winds were just starting to pick up in velocity.

Title: A PARTENAVIA P68C-TC PLT HIT LOW LEVEL WINDSHEAR OR POSSIBLY B737 WAKE TURB IN THE HNL TFC PATTERN.
Narrative: WE WERE CLRED TO LAND ON RWY 4L. WHILE ON THE BASE LEG, THE TWR CHANGED OUR INSTRUCTIONS TO LAND ON RWY 4R. A B737 HAD LANDED ABOUT 1-2 MINS AGO ON RWY 4R. AT 500 FT, WE ENTERED A MODIFIED BASE FOR RWY 4R AND ENCOUNTERED EITHER THE B737'S WAKE TURB OR POSSIBLY WINDSHEAR. OUR ACFT TIPPED NEARLY 60 DEGS BEFORE I COULD BRING IT BACK TO WINGS LEVEL. THE LNDG WAS SUCCESSFUL AND UNEVENTFUL. WINDSHEAR ADVISORIES WERE NOT PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THE WINDS WERE JUST STARTING TO PICK UP IN VELOCITY.
