Houston Airplane Accident Lawyers

To the surprise of many, air travel is the safest transportation that exists today. Even so, traveling via airplane, whether commercial or private, still carries considerable risk given how unlikely it is for a person to survive an airplane accident. Most accidents lead back to pilot error or malfunctioning of the plane, both of which are preventable with adherence to safety procedures.

It’s estimated that about 1,500 aircraft accidents occur every year, many of which do not make the news. The most common dangers that cause airplane crashes are:

• Pilot error: pilot may miscalculate a landing or route
• Defective equipment: manufacturer error. Airline error for failing to inspect all parts prior to take off
• FAA regulation violations: pilots and airlines fail to obey safety protocol
• Service station negligence: station attendants fail to report issues or incidents that lead to a plane crash and serious injuries.
• Air traffic controller negligence: air traffic controllers have one of the most important jobs. They are responsible for safely guiding planes during takeoff and landing. If a controller does not communicate to pilot any dangers or issues, it can lead to landing disasters and other serious accidents.
