As is sometimes the case, the losses amount to workman's compensation claims which are completely inadequate for the need. I do appreciate our life insurance and ALPA's inclusion in our contract.
I also hope that the accident receives a complete investigation. I know it will be looked into, but I'd hate to see anything relevant to future safety be overlooked because of the location and, let's be honest, the lack of public interest/urgency of a small cargo operator.
Does something like this get a full FAA/NTSB/ALPA-Safety/Manufacturer investigation?
