It was Sunjet Aviation's fault with the plane, not Learjet. I wonder how this will turn out.

Florida has a two year statute of limitations on wrongful death I think. It's been 6 years.

Oh, I see, now. The case is just going to trial now. Was obviously filed years ago.

Or testimony could show that a lack of pilot training and plane maintenance caused the Learjet 35 to lose pressure soon after takeoff from Orlando, killing all aboard within minutes.

Then they can sue the flight school who didn't prepare the pilot properly. Or the maker of his mattress because he didn't get enough sleep the night before. Or the maker of the automobile who brought him to the airfield. Or the people who poured the concrete on the flight line...it goes on and on.

Exactly.

It was shoddy maintainance, poor record keeping, poor training and forged logbook entries.

Why sue Lear? Deep pockets. Period.
