I'm not going to get my knickers in a twist over a quote from someone like
that.

Who are you quoting? Who used the word "illegal"?

Since Owen included the link to the article written by an "Evan
Belanger" of "The Cullman Times," that appears to be the source of the
quote.

I had no idea that a flyover of the runway was illegal. But here you
go:



"After making two flyovers - a common, but illegal maneuver in which
the pilot flies low over the runway - he made the five-minute flight
to Rountree where he normally purchased fuel, said airport employees.

According to an investigator with the Federal Aviation
Administration, before landing, he conducted another flyover, but
stalled, crashing nose-down just beyond the tree line in an open
field east of the runway.

The crash was reported at approximately 8 a.m. by a resident who saw
the wreckage as he left for work, according Hartselle Police."


"Veteran-flyer Tom Coggin, 67, of Cullman, died instantly when his
RV-6, two-seater aircraft crashed on private property near Rountree
Field, Hartselle's municipal airstrip."
