lets say you as a pilot got crippled and cant function without help, your pissing through a tube, eating your dinner through a straw and pushing your wheel chair around using your mouth to control the joystick- you would not sue someone?



Obviously this guy is not crippled but its also not like he is asking for alot, $25000 sounds like chump change.



If I survive a plane crash you bet your *** I would be happy to be alive, but you can also bet I would try to sue someone.

Was it due to the fault of someone else or just due to something that couldn't be avoided? I'm not the type that sues over things that were not caused be someone elses neglegence. So you're riding a public bus and it blows a tire and flips over, you sue the bus driver?



I can see this chain of events happening in this case. The pilots start their takeoff roll, they get to 140-150 or whatever they were at and it blows the tires on the one side. The pilots (which is recorded on tape) says hey I think we just blew a tire. He knows this because of a couple things. Its becoming hard to maintain centerline cause its pulling to one side and the friction drag caused by a missing tire is making the airplane unable to accelerate to the rotation speed needed for takeoff. In the few seconds it takes him to realize they have a problem, he's already used up a good chunk of runway doing that speed. His two options now are to keep it full throttle and hope it takes off, which is obviously unlikely, or abort the takeoff and try to slow down as much as possible knowing its going to go off the runway. Which is the lesser of the two evils? Going off the runway at 150+ and killing everyone, or trying to slow it down as much as possible and maybe saving some lives?

thats why you get a lawyer, they figure it out.



If you involve a few different people between them all your bound to get SOMETHING from someone.

I would imagine it being pretty traumatic surviving a plane crash, I would never get back on a plane again thats for sure.
