Who are the victims of the deadly Florida jet crash?

On Sunday, a small Learjet 60 crashed and exploded in Florida, killing nine people. The plane was en route from Austin to the Bahamas. The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating potential factors that may have contributed to the crash, including ice, turbulence, and human error.

Among the victims were Adam Robinson, a Texas tech entrepreneur, and his wife Helen Sharp. They were described as "devoted parents" whose children, Emma and Charlie, were also killed in the crash. Robinson was the founder and CEO of RB2B and Retention.com, as well as Moltsets. He previously worked at Lehman Brothers and Barclays.

Fellow tech entrepreneur Jesse Ouellette remembered Robinson fondly, stating that they had become friends while building their companies. Robinson's final LinkedIn post was about a scheduled debate with Ouellette.

Helen Sharp was an artist, as reported by her father, Dudley Sharp. He shared the family's shock at the loss of their daughter, her husband, and their two grandchildren on the plane.

Rachel Reed, Charmi Fehr, and Anita Maria Cetina were also passengers on the jet with Robinson and Sharp. Reed and Fehr were described as "full of joy and adventure," while Cetina cared for Emma and Charlie with tenderness. The family statement emphasized Cetina's role as part of their family, showcasing her legacy of unconditional love.

Jeff Gregory, the plane's 55-year-old pilot with East Coast Jets, was also among the victims. The company's spokesperson expressed deep sorrow over the loss of Gregory, who had briefly worked for East Coast Jets in 2016 and 2017.

Nathalia Filgueiras, a 20-year-old US pilot, was identified as the copilot of the plane. She earned her pilot's license at 17 and expressed pride in her career choice. Her mother, Camila Corteleti, confirmed Filgueiras' death in the fireball, noting that her daughter enjoyed the freedom of flying.
