I have wondered that, too. Being a civil defense lawyer, I would be very reluctant to sign, because I have seen what arguments plaintiff's lawyers will make. I once had a case involving a burned-up Bombardier Challenger that was totaled in a hangar fire. A salvage company bought the plane...

Let me ask you this: Do you think that the crew performance was acceptable? Do you think the training by the Ethiopian Air was sufficient? Let's forget about running the check list for a second which would have led them to disconnect the electric trim or to disable auto throttle and reduce...

If you were to say this, then I would agree. While I agree that the pilots should not have been put in this position by the Boeing design, I simply do not understand why any pilot qualified to be flying passengers would not have used the electric trim to trim nose up in response to the MCAS...

But what about all of the flat factual misrepresentations and omissions set forth in the EAIB final report that led to their final conclusion?

This ignores all of the actions that could have been taken to prevent the aircraft to get into that situation where they had 10 seconds or less. As to the cause, here is what the NTSB actually stated: We agree that the uncommanded nose-down inputs from the airplane’s MCAS system should be...

I don't know what state you are in and I am probably not licensed to practice law there, so this isn't legal advice, and I am not your lawyer. This is how I would probably handle it if I were in your shoes. I would start by reaching out to the other driver's carrier to see if they accept 100%...

Ok, first off, a disclaimer: I am not an expert in this subject, and the post I am responding to here is from someone who has much more knowledge and experience than I have. This post is meant only as a discussion point for consideration and debate. Doc Bruce posted at one time recommending...

My older brother had that one.

Seems like a lot of effort for something I can just draw on my ipad.

Once you transfer the plane, the old registration is no longer valid. But if the registration had been still in effect prior to the sale, you can still fly the plane for a certain limited period of time if you submit the registration application and bill of sale before flying it, as long as you...

I could see that as a reason why someone might dig deeper, but I don't see how that would cause it to get pinged. There is no ADSB, and he's not talking to ATC. So how would they even know in real time what the registration number is? Or even know to look it up to see if it had expired? The...

The plane had no flight history for some time. It had been sitting until it was sold. This was the very first flight since it was purchased out of the estate. This was before ADS-B was required, and the plane was not so equipped. I was told by the agent that my client was flying...

Please. Just ground your aircraft until it's sorted!! I had a client buy a plane out of his uncle's estate, then he flew the plane back home. On the way home, he stopped overnight (it was a long flight home), and stayed at a local hotel. He was awoken at midnight by Homeland Security and...

Yes. I had a client who got himself crosswise with Homeland Security because of that mistake.

Not if the registration has already expired, as in the OP.

No. That's a felony punishable by prison, a fine, and potential seizure of the aircraft. Seriously. Not kidding. 49 U.S. Code § 46306 - Registration violations involving aircraft not providing air transportation | U.S. Code | US Law | LII / Legal Information Institute (cornell.edu)

I am only aware of one-- Bill Burr.

My wife worked professionally in theater in LA and on Broadway, which makes me (through no coolness factors of my own) pretty much a two or a three from every A-list actor.

Only if you took swimming lessons with her.

You can replicate that fairly cheaply with TrackIR.
