I wanted to see if you could add to this list of notable bands / singers who lost their life in an aviation crash or went missing on a flight.
I am interested specifically in singers / bands only, as opposed to other famous people. Also, where the fatality occurred as part of an aviation accident or missing flight.
Building this out of curiosity only. Any help - appreciated - thank you.
