“Just make the buyer sign an agreement that the mfr will not be held responsible for anything untoward happening while flying the plane....................”

I studied several of the landmark cases in Business Law. One was a plane built in the 1950’s with a carburetor (I want to say it was a Navione (sp?)) It had been through several owners. The carburetor iced up and the plane crashed. The court held that since fuel injection existed when it was built that the manufacturer was liable. You can’t sign your ability to sue away. (Which is why I snicker when people hand out those waivers.)
