What we know about the San Diego aircraft accident and his victims, including Dave Shapiro, music manager
San Diego (AP) – a private aircraft approaching an airport, the lights of which was in a heavy manure, crashed into a San Diego neighborhood and killed the six people on board, including groundbreaking alternative music manager Dave Shapiro. The accident stunned the heavy metal and hard rock scene that grew out of the punk movement. The music agency that Shapiro set up, Sound Talent Group, represented groups such as Pierce the Veil, Parkway Drive and Sum 41, but it also dared in more pop performances such as Vanessa Carlton. Dan Baker of the National Transport Safety Council said it could take a year to sort out exactly what happened to the aircraft, but investigators know that there was thick manure, problems with the runway lights and a broken weather warning system. Baker said pilot and passengers of the plane died in the accident, but that no one was killed on the ground or seriously injured. The authorities did not relieve the names of all six victims, but those identified were, among other things, a drummer and two employees of Sound Talent Group who shared Shapiro’s love for music. Here is what to know about them and the accident: It was the connections that Shapiro, 42, made more than the music he played that made him successful. He played the music industry in the orchestra – counting with stars – which he founded with friends while he was in high school. Shapiro helped bring the underground alternative scene of $ 10-a-show to the mainstream in the 2010s. But he was also great in the creation of a community, says Mike Shea, founder of Alternative Press Magazine. “In this music industry, there are just too many people who snatch people and use people,” he said. “Dave wasn’t like that.” Shapiro was listed as the owner of the plane and had a pilot license. Officials did not say who was flying the plane. Both Fortner, 24, and Huke, 25, joined Shapiro’s agency as a discussion of collaborators after graduating from the university, according to their BIOS released by Sound Talent Group, which confirmed that both women were on the plane. Fortner “was stuck to music from a young age” thanks to her father, who took her to concerts, and she showed an interest in working as a teenager in the music industry. Huke also knew from a young age that she wanted to work in the music industry. “There was nothing that Emma loved more than live music,” the agency said, and she worked hard to save money to attend concerts and festivals. The agency said Fortner and Huke are good at their work, which includes planning tours. A fifth passenger, 36-year-old Celina Marie Rose Kenyon, was identified by the Coroner in San Diego as one of the victims. Kenyon was not an employee of Sound Talent Group, a spokesman for the agency confirmed on Saturday. Daniel Williams, a former drummer for the popular Ohio Metalcore band The Devil Wears Prada, was also killed for their ability to marry melodic punk -rock with metallic detours. When Williams was “in the orchestra, that’s when they broke out,” Shea said. Thomas Gutches, who runs rock groups and artists, remembers Williams’ ability to captivate audiences at shows with his drums just like a band’s frontman. “Daniel offered a show out of his style of play,” he said. The Devil Wears Prada was a client of sound talent group. The plane is from New Jersey to San Diego on his way to a fuel stop in Kansas. It crashed about 3 kilometers from San Diego’s Montgomery Gibbs’ Executive Airport. Eight people on the ground were injured, no one serious. The Cessna 550 quote went off after struck power lines, Baker said. The pilot of the aircraft admitted to an air traffic controller that the weather was not ideal and that he was debated to another airport, according to the sound of the conversation that liveatc.net posted. The Federal Aviation Administration posted an official notice that the runway lights were out on Montgomery Gibbs’ executive airport. The pilot did not discuss it with the controller, but did mention that he knew that the airport’s weather warning system was not working. “Don’t sound good, but we’ll go,” he told the air traffic controller. The fog was so thick around the time of the accident that “you could barely see in front of you,” said Eddy, assistant of the San Diego fire department. In January, the US had its deadliest plane crash in more than 23 years in more than 23 years when an American Airlines passenger ray and a US Army helicopter in Washington collided. The accident killed each passenger on each plane, a total of 67 people. A busy helicopter broke apart and crashed last month in the Hudson River between New York and New Jersey and killed six people, while a small commute crashed into western Alaska in early February and killed all ten people on board. In Philadelphia, a medical transport aircraft that has just been enrolled in a neighborhood at the end of January has killed all six people on board and two people on the ground.
