The following link has a very good news report on the event, a spot map showing the crash site off the island.....and a nice video. In the article you can see a google earth link (text in purple print) that shows the dirt strip that runs across the island "between" houses on either side of it. The landing strip cuts a developed area in two and is dark on each end.

DoubleBogey can have fun with this situation I would think.....it would play right into his concept of a formalized approach procedure rather than peering out the windows.
I do have to wonder if the Pilot was using the GPS distance readout to determine distance from mid-field....along with her MK I's? Also...wonder what the RadAlt bug was set to? Did they have the Night Sun fired up and pointing down? I don't reckon the crew had NVG's either!
