Why not to land downwind
"Jim Macklin" wrote in message
news:rDNKg.6845$SZ3.2959@dukeread04... [...] I think it stopped when out of fuel, which might explain why the pilot landed downwind and at an airport closed to jet traffic. That would be a good guess, except that the accident report doesn't say anything about the fuel being low or empty. Checking the fuel state is SOP for an accident report (even if no engine failure occurred), so the lack of any comment regarding that strongly suggests that fuel wasn't a factor at all in the incident.
