· I saw a Google News item about a Cessna 310 twin-engine aircraft that crashed into power lines after take off from Palo Alto, California..· The pilot was believed to be Doug Bourn, 57,·described as a top Tesla engineer and a robotics mentor to school children.· Two others died and were also Tesla electric car employees.·· It is ironic that the crash caused a major electrical outage in Palo Alto.· The plane was to fly to Hawthorne (in Southern California) near the Tesla offices.
