UPS Sued for Deadly Crash, Prioritizing Profit Over Safety

Two wrongful death lawsuits have been filed against UPS, alleging that the companys profit-driven decisions led to a deadly cargo plane crash in Kentucky. The lawsuits claim UPS continued to fly older aircraft without increasing maintenance, resulting in cracks where the engine connected to the wing. The crash occurred during takeoff, killing three pilots and eleven people on the ground. The Federal Aviation Administration has since grounded all MD-Eleven aircraft, which have exclusively hauled cargo for over a decade. The lawsuits were filed on behalf of the families of Angela Anderson and Trinadette Chavez. The Daily News Now! — Every city. Every story. AI-powered. Hosted on Acast.
