The cause of the crash was not yet known at this time, and it was expected that experts would never really know for sure. Weather conditions were perfect, but this was the fourth tragedy that had occurred during this winter.
Moreover, the pilot of this plane had millions of miles of flying experience under his belt as well. One theory suggests that the pilot had dipped too low when circling for the landing and the undercurrent had pulled the plan under.
