Micron CEO dies in plane crash

The head of Idaho memory chip maker Micron died Friday morning when the small experimental plane he was piloting crashed at the Boise airport, the company said.

Steve Appleton, 51, was the chief executive and chairman of Micron and a professional stunt pilot who escaped a similar plane crash in 2004 with serious injuries.
