U aweir of the most deadly mass killings in CA?
Mind blown I've never heard of these before. I was researching aviation disasters and came across some disturbing ****. The 2 biggest mass killings in CA were committed by disgruntled people purposefully taking down the plane. ****, I don't want to fly. Would rather drive everywhere or boat somewhere (yes, I know statistically flying is safer).

Francisco Paula Gonzales (1936 – 7 May 1964) was a Filipino sailor and mass murderer.
He competed in the Dragon event together with Fausto Preysler and Jesus Villareal at the 1960 Summer Olympics. After the Olympics he moved to San Francisco, United States.
At some point, his wife requested a divorce and he fell into debt.[1] He flew to Reno, Nevada on 6 May 1964. The next day Gonzales was on his return flight: Pacific Air Lines Flight 773.[1] He shot and killed both pilots, and then himself. The Fairchild F-27 crashed, killing all 44 people on board.[2] Investigation showed Gonzales had taken out a $100,000 life insurance policy for his wife.[1]
Pacific Air Lines Flight 773 was a Fairchild F27A Friendship airliner that crashed on May 7, 1964, near Danville, California, a suburb east of Oakland.[1][2] The Thursday morning crash was most likely the first instance in the United States of an airliner's pilots being shot by a passenger as part of a mass murder–suicide. Francisco Paula Gonzales, 27, shot both pilots before turning the gun on himself, causing the plane to crash, killing all 44 aboard.[3][4][5]
As of May 2021, the crash of Flight 773 remains the worst incident of mass murder in modern California history, one death more than the subsequent Pacific Southwest Airlines Flight 1771 hijacking in 1987.

Pacific Southwest Airlines Flight 1771 was a scheduled flight along the West Coast of the United States, from Los Angeles, California, to San Francisco. On December 7, 1987, the British Aerospace 146-200A, registration N350PS, crashed in San Luis Obispo County near Cayucos,[3][4] after being hijacked by a passenger.
All 43 passengers and crew aboard the plane died, five of whom, including the two pilots, were presumably shot dead before the plane crashed. The perpetrator, David Burke, was a disgruntled former employee of USAir, the parent company of Pacific Southwest Airlines.[5] The crash was the second-worst mass murder in Californian history, after the similar crash of Pacific Air Lines Flight 773 in 1964.
