WITNESSES REPORTED THE PLT BEGAN A LOW ALTITUDE, HIGH SPEED PASS OVER THE RWY AS HE HAD DONE ON SEVERAL PREVIOUS OCCASIONS. HOWEVER, AS HE INITIATED THE PASS, THE DESCENT TO THE RWY WAS NOT ARRESTED & THE AIRPLANE 'PANCAKED' NEAR THE THRESHOLD. THE AIRPLANE BOUNCED BACK INTO THE AIR & CONTINUED TO FLY JUST ABOVE THE RWY IN A GRADUAL RIGHT TURN. AFTER TRAVELING ABOUT 1200 FT, IT CRASHED INTO A PLOWED FIELD ADJACENT TO THE RWY. AN EXAM OF THE WRECKAGE REVEALED NO EVIDENCE OF A PREEXISTING MECHANICAL MALFUNCTION OR FAILURE. A PATHOLOGICAL EXAM REVEALED NO MEDICAL CONDITION OF THE PLT THAT WOULD HAVE RESULTED IN THE ACDNT. THE AIRPLANE WAS NOT EQUIPPED WITH A SHOULDER HARNESS. CAUSE:
