Sopranos - Alive

What is the high school in #4?
In what state is it located?

Columbine - Colorado

I wasn't sure of the exact year until this one...

Who the unfortunate pilot in #5?
How many others were on the plane?

John F Kennedy Jr - 3 his wife Carolyn and her sister (I think her name was Lauren)

I read an article not too long ago in People where Carolyn's mother hated her flying with him and begged him never to take both of her girls with him at the same time... I think the "Kennedy Curse" in this case was basically too much money and too much hubris. Although it was certainly a tragedy, I don't feel that bad for him, much like Kobe Bryant. He couldn't be assed to wait in traffic from one end of LA to the other. I feel bad for his daughter and the Bessette girls, but both of those men knew the risks...
