A majority of aviation accidents result in fatalities. Those who survive these types of accidents are often left with significant injuries that require intensive medical treatment or rehabilitation for any measure of recovery. Because aviation accidents are typically associated with substantial losses, personal injury lawsuits are often brought forth on behalf of those who have suffered due to the actions of those responsible. One of the most common questions asked by prospective plaintiffs in these cases is what constitutes pilot error in the event that there is suspicion that a pilot’s actions may have led to an accident?
Pilot error can refer to a number of actions on the part of pilots that cause an aircraft accident. Many of these errors are made unintentionally, but can have devastating consequences for passengers and others on board. Examples of pilot errors that have led to serious plane crashes include: failure to read altimeters and other equipment correctly, attempting to fly in inclement weather, pilot intoxication, allowing a plane to run out of fuel, forgetting to deploy flaps for increased lift, not following proper procedures in the event of a problem that occurs mid-air, and other potential mistakes.
