Aviation Disasters

When an aviation disaster occurs, in either a commercial or privately-owned aircraft, it is especially devastating as multiple parties may be severely injured or killed simultaneously. The most common cause of aviation-related injuries and death include: encounters with unforeseen weather systems, mechanical failure, defective navigational tools and/or errors, insufficient airframe and engine maintenance or excessive age, crew fatigue, and more recently, the increasing risk of injury or death caused by a terrorist act.
