Austin Tech Founder Dies in Plane Crash
Description
A private jet carrying tech mogul Joshua Baer, founder of Capital Factory, crashed near Laredo Tuesday night—killing him and others aboard. Miraculously, two pilots and three teens survived, including Baer’s own son, who’s now recovering. Bystanders heroically helped free trapped passengers. Aviation experts say it’s a miracle more weren’t killed, as the plane hit a barrier at high speed and lost contact with air traffic control. NetJets, owned by Berkshire Hathaway, is investigating with experts on scene. The NTSB and FAA are leading the probe, with an update expected Thursday.
