Another Missing Plane; Designer Feared Dead

Vittorio+Missoni+

In what is becoming a very sad repeat of a story we’ve all heard before, another plane has disappeared carrying a very famous person.

The head of the Missoni fashion house, Vittorio Missoni, as well as his wife and two friends, were flying through South America when their aircraft disappeared off the radar.

They were vacationing in Venezuela with other friends only hours before, according to reports.

    The 58-year-old son of the Italian house’s founders was on the small plane with five other people, including his wife Maurizia Castiglioni and two longtime friends, when it went off the radar 10 nautical miles after taking off from Los Roques, Venezuela’s minister of justice and interior affairs confirmed.

    The plane was headed for an international airport outside Caracas, only about 90 miles away, but never reached its destination. The Venezuelan minister added that a “search and rescue” operation is underway for the plane and its occupants.

In a very similar twist of fate, Mexican singer Jenni Rivera and several other passengers went missing in their airplane just last month. The plane’s wreckage was eventually found and they were all pronounced dead.
