Non-discovery of flight safety data
While perhaps well-known to legal counsel whose practices are situated within the air transport industry, the protection against discovery for flight safety data is not, I believe, well-known to litigators in general, or to corporate counsel. Just curious - to any who have posted and esp. PJ2 - could you kindly provide a citation to a section of the FARs which establishes this (or is it statutorily established?), and also, do you know whether the non-discovery protection has been the subject of any litigated court rulings?
