More seriously though, how sad is this. Inbound from GMH he was apparently instructed to overfly at 1500 and then join mid-downwind for 35L. On the wreckage photo the direction of travel and north can be clearly seen and would somewhat lead to think that he was already past overhead, probably cleared visual approach and at circuit height. This puzzles me because 35L would have been well within gliding distance from this position, yet he went down and seemingly moving away from the airport. That's the part I don't understand.
