The media has not speculated on the cause of this one yet,. . . . local ( Hangarchat ) opinion here is CFIT, or disorientation . . . . very bad weather ( marginal VMC ) in the area at the time. . . . but since there is zero information about the pilot, and only a generic photo of a Piper Archer, that's not much in the way of grounds for guessing. Lovely couple though. . .what a bloody shame.
