If it was the airline's fault in any way, then fine, I could understand a lot more.. But.. it was fucking birds. Inc, makes a good point about people being able to claim millions over spilt coffee. But just because a spasticated precedent exists doesn't mean it should be followed...  | ||

In Australia we have legislation today where we cant sue even if it is appropriate as a reactionary response to American sue excesses....(also corruption :\) Does it actually say "as a reactionary response to American sue excesses" in the legislation? If it does.... that's kind of sad. In Canada we have nothing like that, although it is different, and people often confuse our legal system with the Americans. Our torts are never nearly as generous. | ||

In Canada we have nothing like that, Yes we do. Andrews case trio which set out rules on quantum of damages for torts claims set a maximum value, at 100,000$ in 1971 (74? don't remember), adjusted upward for inflation. | ||

What did the pilot get for being such a badass? They should write him an 8k check for every life he saved. | ||

Well, you can't deny that its typical for americans to sue the shit out of everyone, and trying to get money out of everythign really. Of course they somewhat deserve it since they could even have died and they probably will have some sort of flight phobia now >_< | ||
