Causes of Aviation Accidents

Regardless of the size and model of an aircraft, the devastation of an aviation accident is severe for all involved. Although aircraft are equipped with advanced safety technology and are required to pass routine inspections, accidents do occur. Some common causes of aviation accidents are:

  • Pilot error
  • Poor weather conditions
  • Design defects
  • Manufacturing defects
  • Air traffic controller error
  • Improper aircraft maintenance

It often takes investigators weeks or months to discover the cause of an aviation accident. During that time, speculation can mislead the course of an investigation and greatly impact those who are involved.

If you are recovering from or lost a loved one in an aviation accident, it is important that you have experienced professionals on your side to ensure that all is being done to discover the true cause of an accident.

Our Palm Beach Gardens aviation accident lawyers have a deep understanding of the structure and engineering of all forms of aircraft. Whether the accident was the result of pilot error, manufacturing defect, or a malfunctioning aircraft, we will hold those responsible for the accident accountable for their mistake.

Liability for Aviation Accidents

Determining liability for an aviation accident is extremely important when forming a case. However, finding a party responsible for the accident can be difficult because of the many factors involved in air travel, aircraft ownership, and manufacturer responsibility.

The different factors of liability for aviation accidents include:

  • Ownership liability: If the aircraft is privately owned by an individual or corporate entity, the responsibility for the safety of the passengers on board falls with them. Aircraft owners have a “duty of care” for those flying as passengers within their aircraft and they can be held at fault for any form of carelessness or recklessness, including the actions of the pilots and staff under their employ.
  • Common carrier liability: Commercial airliners are referred to as “common carriers” because they are open to the public and are willing to transport anyone who pays for a ticket. They fall under the jurisdiction of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), which is in charge of regulating and approving all activity concerning commercial aircraft.
  • Manufacturer liability: Aircraft manufacturers can be held liable if you are able to prove that the accident was a result of a defective aircraft or component, based on the concept of strict liability. This means that negligence or intent to harm does not play a part when holding a manufacturer liable for an accident. If the aviation accident that affected you or your loved one was caused by a defective part, our defective product attorneys can help you file a claim against the aircraft’s manufacturer.

Because of the complexity of aircraft accidents, it is imperative that you have an experienced attorney who has knowledge of aviation law. These accidents often result in the death, or severe incapacitating injuries, of the passengers and crew onboard which makes it very difficult to determine the cause of the accident and who accepts liability.

Our Palm Beach Gardens aviation accident lawyers have a vast understanding of all forms of aircraft and well-grounded knowledge grounded knowledge concerning aviation and product liability law. If you want to know more about determining liability for an aviation accident, do not hesitate to ask.
