News - Survivor of Ky. crash sues manufacturer

[XJohXJ]

You guys are pilots, not lawyers. Your beef is with the American legal system, not this pilot. He's caught up in a nasty system, and is simply doing what he must to survive it.

Yeah, those are good points.

I wonder how many lawsuits he is named in ?

Plus he needs A LOT of money to pay for the wrongful death lawsuits that he will loose.

Then I better be able to log PIC as acting FO.

It's not what is right or wrong, legal or illegal. It's what a lawyer can convince a jury.

"Loose" rhymes with "noose", "lose" rhymes with "shoes".

PS. Delta Airlines has a lot more money than a Comair FO. I'll take a wild stab in the dark and say the insurance companie(s) for Delta and Comair will pay a little more than the surviving FO.

I have heard a number around 35-40 suits. If they want us to fly 86 people pay us for the responsability of 90 people NOT50!!!!!!

Come on, the lights were the problem?

Why isn't he suing the FAA guy who turned his back? If you want to make a diversion tactic, that seems better since the FAA at least mentioned it in the report.

What a tool!!! I hope they turn around and bill him for the airplane he destroyed by being stupid.

I thought the guy was lucky to be alive and would have survivors guilt. I used to feel bad for him.
