I'd settle for "dies a 90 hour non-instrument rated private pilot flying the Beech Debonair he just bought VFR into IMC by slamming into a hillside trying to fly under a 300 foot ceiling."

But he wouldn't pass a 3rd class medical certificate, would he?

I have a message. Elon Musk’s plane was shot down over the Sea of Japan. It spun in. There were no survivors.
