Apparently he also did a loop.

Finally crashed and the joyrider believed killed.

Yep Brian, at least nobody else was hurt, though they could so easily have been.
The news seems to be getting stranger every day.

I watched it on the BBC News and thank god nobody else got hurt. I know it sounds odd, but at times like this ridiculous thoughts go through ones head, but I thought the air traffic controller sounded like Bob Newhart.
