KERRVILLE, Texas (AP) — Witnesses described hearing a twin-engine plane sputter and seeing its tail dragging before the small aircraft flipped over and crashed in Central Texas, killing all six people on board.
The Texas Department of Public Safety said Jeffrey C. Weiss was piloting the Beechcraft BE58 Monday morning when it went down as it approached Kerrville Municipal Airport, about 70 miles (110 kilometers) northwest of San Antonio. Friends said Weiss, a 65-year-old investment manager, was an experienced pilot who often volunteered to fly sick people to Texas hospitals.
The family of Houston landscape architect Marc Teppesen, 45, told KTRK-TV that they believe an architectural client had chartered the doomed plane to survey some property. Teppesen was killed alongside his 58-year-old associate Mark Scioneaux, 55-year-old architect Scott Reagan Miller, 55-year-old Houston real estate investor Stuart Kensinger and his 54-year-old wife Angela Kensinger, officials said.
