Authors Abstract
Content
Because of the adverse effect that product liability litigation has had on the aviation community, the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association has formed the Coalition for General Aviation Liability Reform, along with other consumer-interest organizations, to ensure proper consideration is given to the health of the aviation community, the cost and availability of aviation products, and to the development of an improved victim-compensation program. Although initial consultation with the general aviation manufacturers and legislators has left both sides equally satisfied, this paper will explain why more work is recommended to further refine present legislation and to press for its enactment.
