If learning consists of reviewing each and every flight and making improvents to your flying technique, flight planning, decision making etc

Was he taking off?
Sounds like the temp inversion misted his windows and he got caught that way.
See it sometimes where I operate, not always fog involved. Not a big problem if you are half expecting it and do not mind driving looking out the side window instead of the front for a while.

Sound like he didn't give a XXXX for it, or possible was holding one so couln't wipe the perspex, or his cork strewn hat stopped his view, any way he should have given his situation more care , with the past knowledge and experience he would have had.
