Book excerpt: "Much has happened as affects helicopter crash litigation in the intervening eight years since the publication of the Second Edition of this book in 2015. Highlights of recent developments covered in this Third Edition include: 1. The U.S. Supreme Court clarified the jurisdictional landscape for the better in Ford Motor Co. v. Montana Eighth Judicial District by emphatically rejecting the defendant manufacturer's claim that the litigation must "arise out of" the defendant's contacts with the forum state and re-affirming the stream of commerce doctrine. This unanimous Supreme Court decision is arguably the most significant development in helicopter crash litigation as it substantially minimizes the prospect of culpable manufacturing defendants' securing dismissal on jurisdictional grounds. 2. The "Helicopter Fuel System Safety" Amendment was enacted to require that all helicopters manufactured and delivered for use in the United States after April 5, 2020 must be equipped with crash resistant fuel systems (CRFS). There is no single greater recent safety improvement within the entire helicopter industry than the addition of CRFS to helicopters. 3. The Federal Officer Removal Statute was rejected as a basis for any aircraft manufacturing defendant's removal of a design defect case to federal court. The Ninth Circuit's decision in Riggs v. Airbus Helicopters, Inc. -- which the author briefed and argued - - laid to rest any notion that aircraft manufacturers are "agents of the FAA" as Airbus Helicopters strained to argue. The defendant sought a writ of certiorari before the U.S. Supreme Court which was summarily denied. 4. The global pandemic of 2020-21 engendered the widespread and continued use of virtual or remote depositions in civil discovery and helicopter crash litigation was no exception. 5. The universal social and business usage of electronic media has led to a corresponding explosion in the use of electronically-stored information (ESI) discovery. So-called e-discovery encompasses all manner of electronic communication including e-mails, social media, cell phone data and e- storage, all of which is proving fertile discovery grounds in helicopter crash litigation In addition to addressing in detail the foregoing developments, this Third Edition: Updates and "modernizes" Chapters 1 and 2 dealing with helicopter operation and common failure modes. Updates all of the legal, statutory and regulatory framework applicable to helicopter crash litigation. Continues to expand and (hopefully) upgrade the actual practice techniques and methods recommended for handling helicopter crash litigation including new material on jury selection, opening statement and closing argument. Incorporates material from recent helicopter crash cases handled by the author including the Calabasas, California helicopter crash that caused the deaths of NBA legend Kobe Bryant and his daughter Gianna; the Frisco, Colorado crash that resulted in horrific 90% total body burn injuries to flight nurse David Repsher because of the lack of a crash-resistant fuel system (CRFS); and the Kentucky air ambulance helicopter crash that killed three crew members caused by a defectively manufactured main rotor blade. Updates helicopter accident statistics and reviews ongoing efforts for industry safety improvements. As with the First and Second Editions, the greatest outcome of all would be to render the need for helicopter crash litigation much more infrequent if not all together unnecessary"--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Helicopter Crash Litigation, Second Edition is, simply put, an essential volume for any lawyer litigating a helicopter crash case. No other book is devoted exclusively to the representation of plaintiffs in helicopter crash cases. These unique cases require a different approach and techniques, which you will learn from accomplished trial lawyer Gary Robb, who has used these same techniques in a brilliant career as a trial lawyer. This indispensable text travels through the different knowledge and skill sets critical in the successful handling of these cases, ranging from the basic elements of helicopter structure and flight, through the preliminary factual investigation, filing the case, discovery, common defenses, damages and trial. Real helicopter case examples are utilized throughout so as to give context to the suggestions and techniques discussed. The author also recommends safety improvements within the helicopter industry for preventing these accidents in the future.

Book excerpt: An attorney and Marine veteran must unravel a deadly conspiracy in this explosive legal thriller by a New York Times–bestselling author. The President rushes across the South Lawn through a pounding thunderstorm to board Marine One and fly to Camp David late at night. Advisors plead with him not to go—but he insists. He has arranged a meeting that only three people in his administration know about. But he never gets there. Marine One crashes into a ravine, killing all aboard . . . The government accuses the French helicopter manufacturer of killing the president. Senate Investigations and Justice Department accusations multiply as Mike Nolan, a trial attorney and a Marine Corps reserve helicopter pilot, is hired to defend the company against a wrongful death lawsuit brought by the First Lady. Now Nolan must find out what really caused Marine One to crash, and why the president threw caution aside to attend a secret meeting. To clear his client, Nolan must win the highest-profile trial of the last hundred years with very little working for him and many working against him—intent on stopping him at any cost . . . Praise for Marine One “Bestseller Huston . . . grabs the reader by the lapels with the opening sentence of the first chapter of this outstanding thriller. . . . This is nonstop legal suspense at its best.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review) “This gripping thriller opens with a bang. . . . The author smoothly combines the political-conspiracy and courtroom-drama formats, and he nicely explores the story’s fundamental moral quandary. . . . The book has echoes of Michael Crichton’s Airframe.” —Booklist

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the pantheon of air power spokesmen, Giulio Douhet holds center stage. His writings, more often cited than perhaps actually read, appear as excerpts and aphorisms in the writings of numerous other air power spokesmen, advocates-and critics. Though a highly controversial figure, the very controversy that surrounds him offers to us a testimonial of the value and depth of his work, and the need for airmen today to become familiar with his thought. The progressive development of air power to the point where, today, it is more correct to refer to aerospace power has not outdated the notions of Douhet in the slightest In fact, in many ways, the kinds of technological capabilities that we enjoy as a global air power provider attest to the breadth of his vision. Douhet, together with Hugh “Boom” Trenchard of Great Britain and William “Billy” Mitchell of the United States, is justly recognized as one of the three great spokesmen of the early air power era. This reprint is offered in the spirit of continuing the dialogue that Douhet himself so perceptively began with the first edition of this book, published in 1921. Readers may well find much that they disagree with in this book, but also much that is of enduring value. The vital necessity of Douhet’s central vision-that command of the air is all important in modern warfare-has been proven throughout the history of wars in this century, from the fighting over the Somme to the air war over Kuwait and Iraq.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human error is implicated in nearly all aviation accidents, yet most investigation and prevention programs are not designed around any theoretical framework of human error. Appropriate for all levels of expertise, the book provides the knowledge and tools required to conduct a human error analysis of accidents, regardless of operational setting (i.e. military, commercial, or general aviation). The book contains a complete description of the Human Factors Analysis and Classification System (HFACS), which incorporates James Reason's model of latent and active failures as a foundation. Widely disseminated among military and civilian organizations, HFACS encompasses all aspects of human error, including the conditions of operators and elements of supervisory and organizational failure. It attracts a very broad readership. Specifically, the book serves as the main textbook for a course in aviation accident investigation taught by one of the authors at the University of Illinois. This book will also be used in courses designed for military safety officers and flight surgeons in the U.S. Navy, Army and the Canadian Defense Force, who currently utilize the HFACS system during aviation accident investigations. Additionally, the book has been incorporated into the popular workshop on accident analysis and prevention provided by the authors at several professional conferences world-wide. The book is also targeted for students attending Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University which has satellite campuses throughout the world and offers a course in human factors accident investigation for many of its majors. In addition, the book will be incorporated into courses offered by Transportation Safety International and the Southern California Safety Institute. Finally, this book serves as an excellent reference guide for many safety professionals and investigators already in the field.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title was first published in 2002: This field guide assesses two views of human error - the old view, in which human error becomes the cause of an incident or accident, or the new view, in which human error is merely a symptom of deeper trouble within the system. The two parts of this guide concentrate on each view, leading towards an appreciation of the new view, in which human error is the starting point of an investigation, rather than its conclusion. The second part of this guide focuses on the circumstances which unfold around people, which causes their assessments and actions to change accordingly. It shows how to "reverse engineer" human error, which, like any other componant, needs to be put back together in a mishap investigation.
