Bell continues to cough up Money on suits. Another one came out a short time ago in California for $8+ Million to the widow of a Pilot killed when his Bell 206L series ran out of fuel. Yes ran out of fuel. From what I gather the award was based on problems involved in fuel transfer pumps, guages etc. The true info is out there on NTSB reports, I dont have the exact.
Widow will collect more money than the poor guy could have ever made flying and it will be passed on to future customers.
Remember when a Cessna 182 was about $50k...........they are now around $200k.. Inflation, NO.........Lawyers, Yes.
