Lots of good commentary on the likely cause. I have one comment: Some years
ago I was living on the Boston North Shore, near Beverly Airport. A doctor
was flying is family back from their summer home in NH about an hour after
sunset. He flew twin twin engine plane right into the ground about 1 mile
short of the runway killing all 4. Apparently the tower was screaming at him
for the last few minutes telling hin that he was too low. Rather than
thanking the tower, he argued with them, all the way into the ground. A
comment from the tower controller was something like "I hate doctor and
lawyer pilots, all they want to do is argue when you are trying to help
them". He crashed right into the Topsfield Fairgrounds, the week after the
Topsfiled Fair, about 2 miles form our house.
