Louisville Pilot Error Lawyers
With everyday passenger planes traveling between 30,000 and 40,000 feet, any mistake could potentially lead to a serious accident resulting in injuries, and even death. Even though airplane crashes are not as common as motor vehicle or motorcycle accidents, airplane accidents are far more severe and almost always end in serious injuries or fatalities. One of the most common causes of airplane accidents is pilot error. Almost half of all aviation accidents are attributable to pilot error or negligence.

Most Common Pilot Errors
There are many different pilot errors that could lead to an airplane crash. When pilots choose to act negligently, they are not only risking their own lives, but also those of every passenger or person in the flight path. Some of the most common pilot errors include:
- Flying under the influence of alcohol or drugs
- Not following air traffic controller instructions or warnings
- Not paying attention to gauges or warning signs in the cockpit
- Not monitoring radar and colliding with another plane
- Flying in bad weather conditions against advisement by air traffic control or others
