Sergey Brin sued over plane crash
Google co-founder Sergey Brin is facing a wrongful-death suit in California from the widow of the pilot who was flying one of the billionaire’s planes from Santa Rosa to his private island in Fiji last year when it crashed into the Pacific Ocean.
The suit, filed in state court in Santa Clara County, alleges Brin’s $8 million twin-engine seaplane was improperly outfitted with an auxiliary fuel tank that malfunctioned several hours into the 20 May flight, forcing an emergency return to California.
