The plane was being flown by the tour bus driver. He had previously killed a passenger in a helicopter crash, which he wasn’t certified to fly. He was high on cocaine. He was not current nor did he possess a valid medical. He stole the airplane, which was not in annual and hadn’t flown for over a year. He recklessly “buzzed” the tour bus several times before finally hitting it with his wing and crashing into a garage. The stupid is strong in this accident.

Oh, the plane involved was a 35 model Beechcraft Bonanza. The same type that Buddy Holly was in when he died in a crash in Iowa. Which was also a gross case of pilot incompetence.
