"This was a tragic accident that saddens me greatly. But, until the ATSB bring down their findings, I like to give the pilot credit for being more experienced than the vast majority of charter flight pilots and that he was ( if for no other reason than self preservation) making his best effort to conduct a a safe flight."
The pilot wasn't experienced nor did he have an Instrument Rating and previously had a fright, which should have been a lesson, but not so.
