Pilot Jonathan Mann, who died along with his passenger, should have had more help, inquest told.
The death of a pilot whose aircraft crashed in poor weather has been ruled as misadventure by a coroner.
The Mudry Cap 10B plane crashed into a tree on farmland, near the village of Buckland St Mary at about 09:15 BST, having originally taken off at about 07:00. At the inquest in Wells, senior Somerset coroner Samantha Marsh said: "Mr Mann appears to have become spatially disorientated, and this resulted in a high-energy impact collision with a large oak tree at Colley farm, Buckland St Mary, near Chard.
