HELICOPTER CRASH RAISES SERIOUS SAFTEY CONCERNS FOR HAWAII TOURISTS
Unfortunately, the large number of accidents and crashes from Helicopters raises a serious safety concern for Hawaii tourists. There are over 11,000 helicopters operating in the US and Hawaii is especially vulnerable to lax safety standards. The beautiful vistas at isolated Hawaii locations tempt our tourist community to embark on a helicopter tours of the Islands. Likewise, the assistance of experienced attorneys can help isolate the causes of the crash. Typically, the NTSB will conduct an investigation that may point to pilot error, failure of maintenance or equipment failure. At Davis Levin Livingston, we urge tourists to look into the safety record of your helicopter tour company and the credentials of the pilots before booking a tour. Remember, there will be many that offer competing tours and the information may help you decide which tour company to employ. For further information or assistance with accidents involving aircraft or helicopters specifically, contact the firm at justice@DavisLevin.com (808) 524-7500
