I wouldn't think so after this accident. RIP.
In 1992, In-N-Out opened its first non-southern California restaurants in
Las Vegas, Nevada. Expansion then began into
northern California, including the San Francisco Bay Area, while additional Las Vegas-area restaurants were added. However, after opening restaurant #93 in
Fresno, California, on December 15, 1993, Rich Snyder and four other passengers died in a plane crash on approach to
John Wayne Airport in
Orange County, California. The charter aircraft they were on had been following a
Boeing 757 in for landing, became caught in its
wake turbulence, and crashed. The ensuing crash investigation led to the
Federal Aviation Administration requirement for an adequate distance between heavy aircraft and following light aircraft to allow wake turbulence to diminish.
Upon Rich's death in 1993, his brother, Guy Snyder, assumed the presidency and continued the company's expansion through the 1990s, dying in 1999 from an overdose of painkillers.[8] He was only president for six years, but during this time, In-N-Out had expanded from 93 to 140 locations.[16] Esther Snyder, his mother and one of In-N-Out's original two founders, subsequently took over the presidency.
These both were the founder's only sons.
