It will be interesting to see what observations/recommendations, if any, the AAIB make in relation to the stopend & overrun areas with "obstacles" in the vicinity of the airfield.
Had the carpark been empty, then the outcome may well have been survivable.

CAA aerodrome standards may well be considering suitable changes to CAP168. Was any mention made about obstacles in the report after the yearly inspection?

The type of traffic encountered in the circuit was an important factor in the unplanned profile flown. A significant distraction and increased workload impacting upon capacity resulting in a serious unstable approach.
The pilot's history may well reveal some interesting factors.......

What evacuation briefings are given when no cabin crew are present on this size of private operation?
Have VIPs got a scoobie about how to get out in a hurry?
