Spatial Disorientation, it didn’t help that he was doing 165 knots, he could have been going 20 knots and hovered over the freeway, unfortunately getthereitis is all too often a fatal decision.

Yes, that’s what I said a couple days after the crash, when I saw on flightradar24 that, except for the circling around Hollywood (which maybe Kobe wanted him to do for the passengers), he was flying close to max cruise speed most of the time. Good way to get behind the ac when suddenly you have too much to do all at once. According to the sale listing of the bird when Illinios was selling it, it was IFR equipped, and had autopilot. The autopilot could have reduced his workload in his ascent into the clouds. I’m guessing that he didn’t use it.
