Flown through the centre line..?

It would be informative if we knew where the crash occurred relative to the centre-line of the runway.
Most PPLs are instructed to not exceed 15 degrees angle of bank in the climb-out, and restricting the AoB on the descent would also be wise.
Maybe what actually happened was that they were trying to align with the runway using 20 degrees AoB,.. When Ooops...they crossed the centre line, so pulled back and added more AoB to try and intercept... The rest is history.
