Aviation Accidents: Pilot error, mechanical failure, or control tower mistakes are the cause of many aviation accidents. Whatever their cause, airplane crashes result in catastrophic injuries or death to pilots, passengers, and people on the ground.
In addition to pilot error, mechanical failure, and control tower errors, airplane accidents can be the result of:
- Design defects in the equipment
- Violations of Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations
- Structural problems in the equipment
- Third party errors, such as selecting the carrier or negligent maintenance at a contracted maintenance facility
- Failure to follow control tower instructions
After a plane crash, the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) immediately begins its analysis of the accident site. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) sets the standards of performance and behavior for pilots, air traffic controllers, and all other employees of an airline. Our Attorneys understand the roles and procedures of these two agencies.
