My guess...........and that's all it is..........is that he's medically sound. He got in way over his head and didn't feel confident to land the airplane in those conditions..........panic, if you will.

On the fourth time, he managed to get it together and land it. The visibility on #4 was not better (possibly worse) than #1, #2, and #3.

So, the FAA won't find anything............a fellow who missed the approach in bad weather.........that's it.
