Liability etc

The aviation insurers on behalf of the owner of the Hunter, admitted civil liability under Section 76 (2) to various families whom lost loved ones last year. That Statute means what is says, and the facts of the accident as known, are more than sufficient for the admission to be given. There will now be no High Court trial on the civil liability of the operator of the Hunter to the families whom lost loved ones, as that issue has been dealt with.

That should not be confused with the roles of the Inquest, and the current criminal investigation by the Sussex Police.
