Would any of you out there not agree that, had he flown from Belgium via Dover to Shoreham direct, then he would not be alive and kicking today?
Evidently he was not able to fly on instruments - if he had been able to, he would not have crashed until flying an IAP somewhere, or fuel exhaustion.
What was the Shoreham weather at the time? I am sure one can get historical METARs somewhere...
