Interesting note... the guy's name is Joseph Andrew Stack.

The FAA registry lists no one by that name with a certificate. *It will be
interesting to see if he was a student pilot or if he just figured out how
to fly today.

He was a student. I don't think he had even soloed, or if he did it
was just his first solo. Its possible he never got his medical if he
wasn't solo. The FBO reported that he was not suppose to have access
to the keys but he told them he was pre-flighting before his CFI
arrived. His suicide has been used as an example of the harmlessness
of GA since he only broke a couple of windows. Unfortunately, this
recent guy did more damage.
