Default NTSB: Crossfield Not Warned Of Adverse Weather

I am hoping that ADS-B will help to prevent these kinds of tragedies.
Having real-time traffic and weather data streaming into your avionics
from ground stations should make all of us safer if we know where to
look for each other in flight, and we all give severe weather the
respect and wide berth it deserves...


I am confused. He could not look outside and see that weather was
bad? Technology is nice but common sense is needed more by some
pilots.


I don't know his case, but when flying in the clouds with imbedded
thunderstoms, you can't see the storms. Without a radar on board, I prefer
to stay VMC if there are thunderstorms in the area.
