Could the lack of a moon have contributed to this tragic accident?

Offhand I'd say it an impact with granite. And that's always down to
the pilot not knowing where he is.

Period.

Damn, that hadda smart!

Long ago we had a hot shot pilot on our field that liked to hot dog
it, run the length of the runway and then do a zoom up, etc... He
went on a flying trip to South America and found a Cumulus Granitis
one scud run day...

Sam Clemens was asked, when he applied for a job as a River boat captain,
if he knew where the various sandbars and other hazards in the missisippi
were. "nope, but I know where they ain't" said he.
