The fourth victim who died when a plane built from a kit crashed in California has been identified as the son of a Zoom executive.
Isaac Zimmern, 27, was with his long-time girlfriend Emma Wilmer-Shiles when they boarded the homemade aircraft piloted by their friend, Lochie Ferrier, who also died in the crash last week along with his fiancee, Cassidy Petit.
Zimmern is the son of Johann Zimmern, 59, the head of Global Education Marketing at Zoom who lives in San Francisco’s Sunnyside neighborhood in a $1.1 million home, the International Business Times reports.
The younger Zimmern was also living in San Francisco with Wilmer-Shiles, 27, and the couple had been together for 10 years.
Zimmern had left his hometown to spend the last three years working in New York City, most recently serving as a senior operations associate for Burrow, a Brooklyn-based furniture manufacturing company, according to his LinkedIn profile.
He was identified as the fourth person who was aboard the Cozy Mark IV, a single-engine, four-seater plane that crashed last Sunday at around 4 p.m. off the coast of Half Moon Bay.

1st thing that popped into my mind was John Denver.
Sounds like it.
“Finally done putting this thing together. Sure was nice of the manufacturer to include these extra wing fasteners.”
Yep......................
Darwin’s observations remain relevant.
It sounds somewhat crass to say at this time, but at least 2 MIT graduates on board? They must have been hard at work studying DEI while they were enrolled as students.
Re: 11 - What an ignorant statement.
You don’t know anything about them? Or you do? Do you know their grades? Special projects? Courses taken?
No “sorry they died”. Just a cheap shot about them and DEI.
More evidence that the quality of discourse on the Internet needs improvement.
Sounds like it was a motor problem. I was wondering if the plane flew before.
Too soon, but...😂
Sounds like you should offer classes on "quality internet discourse". Maybe a class on ankle-biting also.
I believe this was a battery powered aircraft.
I see you understand NorCal residential real estate.
Are you an MIT graduate or a DEI officer?
I admit it was an ill-timed comment, All of the recent discussion on the course of education circling the drain makes this an obvious question that deserves an answer.
I suggest having a cup of coffee and chill.

Not every college student is a DEI wokester.
And it’s poor form to use people’s deaths to push an agenda.
Deal with it.
10 years with the girlfriend, and didn’t marry her. Oh wait, she is one of the victims. Why would she?? Anyway RIP
