Agreed, it wasn't a matter of time at all.
Whilst being a slightly tricky approach it's still perfectly safe and managable. Anyone that knows Sibson is aware of the pylons and anyone visiting should have had full instructions when requesting PPR.
It'll be interesting to know if this was simply pilot error, or if some form of mechanical failure preventing him maintaining proper altitude....
Edit: Just measured up on google maps, I reckon the power lines are approx 0.3m from the start of the runway, and about 0.5m from the number 24 where you aim to touch down.
