The tower is charted and properly lighted. One can break the chain by
practicing good airmanship.



Whatever, Mr. Inflexable. Many local pilots begged for more/better
lighting. Could it be that it needed it? Could be that some do not
practice good airmanship? It also could be that someone gets involved with
looking for traffic, or dealing with a mechanical problem on-board, or.. a
million other things, and they lost situational awareness. Point is, one
thing to break the chain (like more lighting, or the tower not being in such
close proximity) could have broken the accident chain.

Fact is, one such couple needed something else to break the chain. They are
dead now.

It would seem to me that anyone (including you) could see that.
