The families of three drunk passengers killed in a May 2010 floatplane crash off Vancouver Island are suing the airline, saying the pilot never should have let them on board in the first place.
The airplane crashed into the water not long after takeoff, killing the three passengers and pilot Damon York on impact. Canada’s Transportation Safety Board said the position of the pilot’s seat suggested the passenger behind him kicked the back of his seat, causing him to be jammed into the panel and forcing the airplane into an unrecoverable dive.
