Aviation Fatalities: "he died doing something he loved..."

Yes, and Avflash pointed out that Crossfield didn't say anything when
Yeager ran off the runway a few years back. Maybe Yeager should learn a
few things about manners. Scott died after he asked for a course change
to avoid weather. I would guess that things were worse than he expected
and when he tried to get out of it he ran out of time and options all at
once. May he rest in peace.

This is true, and most likely a very good guess. I'm also still interested
in seeing the post mortem report.
