Looks like he was doing T&G"s until something happened on a takeoff. Very nicely executed landing given only about 500 ft AGL. https://flightaware.com/live/flight/N8923J

There are no power lines near the *proper* approaches to the runway, and even the freeway lights south of the runway are very very short compared to others in the area. The wreckage is situated where the red circle is on this maps image. [edit] It's also very possible, even very likely now...

Plane looks pretty banged up but apparently and thankfully the pilot was not severely injured. https://www.abc15.com/traffic/pd-1-hospitalized-after-plane-crashes-on-mcclintock-drive-and-loop-202-overpass https://twitter.com/new001jv/status/1391594799451369472

Let's talk about the economic impact of putting yourself in a situation requiring an emergency landing, rolling equipment, diverting aircraft, just...because? What a ********.

Some of the titles on the videos out there say it was a Mexican drug cartel plane, but it seems more likely he was with family/friends, swooped low over the homestead, and caught a powerline, luckily able to put it down in a nearby field with no/minor injuries. Luck. Kee.

Yup

Braking effectiveness likely would have improved if the flaps were retracted.

OK, picture in your minds the kind of douchebag at the controls of the Bonanza. Are you picturing a 100% douchebag? Yes? OK then. Behold.

Suicide.

Isn't POA grand? No matter what the incident, before the end of the 2nd page of discussion, it's devolved into a dick-measuring contest over what the meaning of the word "is" is.

Sure didn't sound like hypoxia, his speech was perfect.

It didn't occur to me that Whiskey Throttle applied to airplane piloting in addition to motorcycling, but there it is.

Must have skipped leg day.

Sounds like possible engine trouble during low flight? Some of the images are rough. https://wsvn.com/news/local/2-killed-in-plane-crash-in-pembroke-park/ http://www.kathrynsreport.com/2020/08/rockwell-500s-shrike-commander-n900dt_28.html
