Human Factors
While on a straight-in approach in VMC to BTL Runway 23R; we spotted a black object that appeared to be a small drone approaching from the West. The drone passed overhead at 50 to 100 ft. above us. This incident was shared with the BTL Tower and they relayed a warning to the other aircraft in the pattern of a drone near the airport. We continued our approach and landed without further incident.
