Flew into the ground in low cloud base and bad visibility. Burnt out.
The Board concludes that the main factors influencing the PiC’s decisions and thereby the course of events were the deteriorating weather conditions combined with the terrain at the coast. In addition the Board has seen a tendency for some pilots to more easily accept flying in marginal weather since the GPS was introduced to general aviation. The accuracy of this navigation system gives them the confidence that they will manage to find their destination.
