Who does he expect to fool? If this goes to trial the jury should be
full of pilots (mostly GA types).


Anyone with any aviation background will be excluded from the jury. Bias.

He departed on a runway without runway lights in violation of
his company opspecs requiring lights (which have the wait of
FARs) and he blames the manufacturer of the lights?

Maybe, but the costs for "legal maneuvering" come out of our pockets.

....defend himself from the possible civil claims against him.

What it boils down to is which insurance company is going to pay what.

Those would be valid claims, his suit is not.

It seems that if he's responsible, the claims against him are valid. He
should accept responsibility and not try to shift blame onto someone
else. Keep in mind that companies don't pay for anything, every dollar
a company spends comes out of YOUR pocket.
