HOW horrible for him and his family.
I remember when Dean Martin lost his son. Ole Dino was NEVER the same. His career ended, for good, soon after that.
It was also a small plane crash.

Dean Paul Martin was flying an F-4 Phantom out of March AFB in Riverside CA-- flew into the side of Mt. San Gorgonio in a storm.
Eerily and ironically...
The same mountainside that claimed the life of Frank Sinatra's mother in the crash of a chartered Learjet.

Well, nevertheless, it was a MILITARY “small plane”, an F-4 Phantom.
It was very sad to see Dean Martin’s life spiral down after losing his son. He was very proud of young Dino.

It was also a small plane crash. It was an F4-C. Martin flew for the 309th TAC Fighter Squadron when I was in the 307th. They lost 4 jets that I recall, and sabotage was suspected.

Dino Martin died in an F4 fighter/bomber that flew into the side of a mountain.
