Bushy,
What other outcome would you be expecting if you came over the fence 100kts to fast, in the configuration they were in, do you think perhaps they thought they had arrestor wires, or perhaps a drag chute to wipe out all that energy???

Simplistic?? you may think so, I dont. In fact the more one reads these threads the closer the Aviation scene seems to be getting where nobody is responsible for their actions. There are very few pure accidents, majority are the result of errors of ommission or commission.
