Single Engine Plane lands in subdivision

Another Cirrus SR20 crash... 1 incident and 2 crashes in 2 days? ~~~~~~~~~~~ A Cirrus SR SR20 G3 crashed in an agricultural field near Angicos, about 18km north of Carmo do Cajaru, Minas Gerais. According to witnesses, the plane crashed into a tailspin. It attempts to recover, but was unsuccessful. It was raining at the time of the accident Both occupants were killed.
 
I just heard about a VFR into IMC that ended up in them beaking out the clouds inverted and deploying the chute just before slamming into the ground.. all killed.

I fly over Pilot Country on a regular basis and it isn't easy to identify and looks mostly like another road. It's not hard to believe a student pilot wouldn't able to pick the airport out. But it is pretty hard to believe they'd land on whatever looked most like an airport. It's also hard to believe that an instructor would sign you off to fly there if they reviewed the flight.

I fly over it too fairly often....still kinda a dunce move....
