First lawsuit filed in Reno air race crash

Thursday, November 3rd, 2011 Catastrophe Liability Litigation

The family of a spectator killed in an air race crash in September has filed suit, claiming the Reno, Nevada, crash was not a "freak accident," but was "the predictable result of a reckless drive for speed by a risk-taking pilot and crew, coupled with an insatiable drive for profit" by race organizers. The lawsuit is the first of what is expected to be a flurry of lawsuits involving the September 16 crash, which killed the P-51D Mustang’s pilot and 10 people on the ground, and injured more than 60.
