Aviation Accident Lawsuit Over Another Preventable Airplane Crash

Last week we told the story of a recurring tragedy--a preventable aviation accident that took the lives of all on board--in a wrongful death lawsuit we filed last week.

The story of this airplane crash is yet another disturbing example of how lives are lost when basic safety--and common sense--are disregarded.

The pilot ignored clear warnings of dangerous weather, and proceeded into conditions that he and his aircraft were not capable of handling. Experienced pilots have a term--"get-there-itis"--for foolishly disregarding dangers and plowing ahead.

The aircraft crash was unforgiving, and all on board died. As aviation crash experts weigh in on all of the preventable errors made by this pilot, the family members wonder why this preventable accident had to occur.

The fact is that this preventable plane crash did not have to occur. We know that public safety depends on learning from past tragedies like this one, so that future ones can be prevented. We are committed to that result here.
