Good news for private pilots' spouses

I don't want this to be the only tort reform out there - but it's got to start somewhere

I'm with ya on that. It's gone beyond stupid in this country, when
juries award ridiculous amounts because some scumbag lawyer talked a
grieving widow/widower into suing for damages.

Amen. And let's not forget: It's me, and you, and ALL of us here that
is paying for these awards. That seems to be something no one
remembers anymore...

I've flown into Sun N Fun, and I've flown into Oshkosh. It's a high
stress, high aircraft density situation. Everyone who has ever
observed arrivals or departures at either fly-in knows that failure to
instantly obey a controller's commands can, and will, get you -- or
someone else -- killed.

For this woman to sue "We the People" for her own husband's error as a
pilot seems to be the highest irony of all. To actually WIN such a
lawsuit defies belief.
