Footage from cockpit cameras in the jet which crashed during the Shoreham airshow killing 11 people revealed there were "no abnormal indications" during the flight.
The aircraft also "appeared to be responding to the pilot's control inputs", according to an initial report by the Air Accidents Investigation Branch.
The family of Richard Smith, who was on his way to a bike ride with cyclist friend Dylan Archer when the crash happened, have paid tribute to a "truly wonderful" man.
"Richard was a lively, good humoured 26-year-old. His passions in life were for his family, friends and his beloved bikes. His boundless enthusiasm was infectious. He was a truly wonderful, caring and loving person.
"He leaves behind his partner Victoria, his parents Julie and Jonathan, and two much-loved brothers William and Edward. He will be so sorely missed by all who knew him."
Smith, originally from Buckinghamshire, moved to Hove two years ago. He worked in marketing and web development at an independent company providing advice to the cycling industry.
The inquest into the deaths of 11 people in the Shoreham air disaster is due to be opened and adjourned today.
