Gary Robb, an attorney with Robb & Robb of Kansas City, Mo., filed a wrongful death suit on behalf of the families of the deceased. It names Cessna Aircraft; Textron, Cessna’s parent company; Parker Hannifin; Sigma Tek; and Aeroflite, the maintenance provider. The defendants maintain that Randy Carnahan’s negligence led to the crash.

“The critical flight instrument failed,” Robb said in a published statement. “The failure of the primary attitude indicator was cited as a contributing cause of the accident. The report cites Carnahan’s extensive training in the aircraft and confirms that he ‘had been known to cancel trips when the weather conditions were unfavorable.’ The NTSB’s final report confirms his excellent training and skills as a pilot and his reputation for safety.”
