Scene of the Accident
Commentary:
With this accident, a lot is going to weigh on information we don’t have, but we can still explore. Considering that news suggested that the propeller may have dislodged from the plane in the accident. If true, I could see this happening in one of two ways. Either the plane itself had a problem with the design or construction that caused the propeller to separate from the aircraft. If this is true, depending on the age of the plane and a few other factors, the plane builder could be liable for at least a portion of the accident.
