The a/c did a overfligt at high alt, then a low pass, then repositioned to land. Landing was well in, and it ended up overturned in a field next to the rwy.

At least that's what media says

Having landed a 172 there a couple of times....

There is a
bit of terrain surrounding the field, but not that bad

I've met the pilot severeal years ago when he flew the J-29 out of Angelholm, great guy.

Sad news indeed
