Click here to learn more. two months to the day before five FlyNYON passengers were killed on a doors-off helicopter photo tour a pilot for Liberty Helicopters accurately predicted their deaths. The pilot was speaking during a safety meeting attended by representatives from FlyNYON and Liberty Helicopters which routinely conducted doors-off flights for FlyNYON and its parent company He was venting his frustration with FlyNYON’s delay in procuring high-quality aviation-grade safety harnesses for its passengers instead continuing to rely on inexpensive yellow fall protection harnesses that he dubbed “Home Depot specials.” “The next big problem that we’re going to have going forward with this entire thing is what happens when people need to emergency evacuate the aircraft?” he said according to a transcript of the meeting included in court filings “With your carabiner being hard attached to the upper D-ring on that yellow harness you cannot trapped in the bottom of the Hudson f***ing River to get that.” drowned in New York City’s East River but for the same reason the pilot foresaw: they were unable to free themselves from their supplemental harnesses after the Airbus AS350 B2 they were riding in made an emergency landing to the river and overturned in the water. The recorded audio from this meeting was key evidence in a lawsuit brought by the family of one of the passengers That six-year legal odyssey culminated on Sept 19 after a New York jury awarded approximately $116 million in damages to Cadigan’s family — reportedly the largest jury verdict for a single wrongful death in the history of New York state. which reviewed evidence over the course of a two-and-a-half months awarded $113 million in compensatory damages allocating 42% fault to FlyNYON and NYONair 38% to Liberty and 20% to emergency float manufacturer DART Aerospace An additional $3 million in punitive damages — meant to punish a defendant that has acted in a particularly harmful way — was awarded against the NYON enterprises No blame was assigned to Airbus Helicopters the manufacturer of the accident aircraft. “I think the jury did an excellent job sorting through the evidence and arriving at a verdict that fairly and justly compensates this family,” Gary Robb “The evidence was overwhelming that [the defendants] knew that the passengers could not escape They had warnings from pilots that that would be the case but they scoffed and mocked in horrible language the pilots who came forward and ended up actually being whistleblowers.” The mishap occurred during a doors-off helicopter photo flight in a B2 operated by Liberty on behalf of FlyNYON. As previously established by the U.S National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) Cadigan was riding in the front seat of the helicopter when the tether used to connect his harness to the aircraft caught on the floor-mounted fuel shutoff lever resulting in a loss of power to the engine. The pilot performed a successful autorotative descent to the East River when he activated the aircraft’s optionally-equipped emergency floats they inflated partially and asymmetrically causing the helicopter to overturn in the water who was wearing only the aircraft’s installed four-point seat belt with a quick-release buckle was able to escape from the submerged aircraft but the five passengers were unable to free themselves from their supplemental harnesses and drowned. In 2018, Vertical broke the story of how Liberty pilots had raised multiple safety concerns with the FlyNYON harness and tether system in the months leading up to the fatal accident only to have their concerns angrily dismissed by FlyNYON CEO Patrick K Day (referred to in some testimony as “Junior” to distinguish him from his father Liberty Director of Operations Patrick Day who nominally served in the same role for FlyNYON). Liberty should have had final say over how they were conducted — a foundational aviation principle known as operational control that is intended to separate safety of flight decisions from financial or scheduling ones the NTSB found that Liberty’s managers improperly allowed Patrick K Day and other FlyNYON personnel to influence core aspects of Liberty’s operational control including decisions around whether or not it was safe to fly on a given day. but FlyNYON continues to operate the same types of doors-off photo tours as the accident flight encouraging passengers to dangle their feet outside the aircraft for “shoe selfies.” Cadigan was leaning back to take a shoe selfie when his tether caught on the helicopter’s fuel shut-off lever. He spent nearly an hour of the two hours allotted for his closing arguments making a vigorous case against the aircraft manufacturer arguing that the floor-mounted fuel controls were known to be susceptible to inadvertent activation by passengers as illustrated by multiple previous accidents involving the fuel flow control lever positioned next to the fuel shut-off lever Robb asked the jury to award at least $140 million in damages and assign 40 percent of the fault to Airbus. which was very smart and dedicated and attentive Airbus did not immediately provide comment on the verdict. FlyNYON’s attorneys attempted during the trial to shift most of the blame onto the pilot of the accident helicopter They argued that he gave Cadigan an inadequate safety briefing and failed to guard the fuel control levers from his tether presenting video evidence that showed Cadigan’s tether loop was present in the engine control quadrant area for about a minute before it snagged on the fuel shut-off lever. The pilot had just 65 seconds from the time the engine lost power until the helicopter contacted the water during which time he entered an autorotation attempted to relight the engine both before and after he realized that the fuel shut-off lever had been moved transmitted a mayday call to air traffic control and activated the emergency floats FlyNYON attorney Anthony Battista faulted the pilot for not also instructing the passengers to begin disconnecting their tethers during the emergency descent. Yet that argument was undermined by FlyNYON’s former lead pilot whose recorded deposition was replayed by Robb during closing arguments The lead pilot was being paid by NYON to provide her deposition on the company’s behalf and responded to many questions with “I don’t know” or “I don’t recall” during her cross examination by Robb But when Robb asked if she blamed the pilot of the accident flight “How many hours did we spend watching NYON blame [the pilot] I guess she didn’t get the memo that they were going to blame [the pilot],” Robb said during his closing arguments Battista did not respond to a request for comment. Vertical previously reported that Liberty pilots had demonstrated well before the accident that the cutting tools FlyNYON was supplying to passengers to aid in an emergency egress were ineffective on the thick climbing tethers it was using 2017 — more than four months before the accident — in which pilots and FlyNYON customer service representatives demonstrated that the cutters did not slice easily through the tethers as well as evidence that FlyNYON managers including Patrick K Day had seen and commented on the video. Eric Adams, a journalist for Wired who was on another FlyNYON photo tour at the same time as the accident flight, published his own video demonstration in April 2018 showing that the cutters did not readily slice through the tether even with great force applied FlyNYON’s attorneys called expert witness Gregory Feith who attempted to demonstrate that the cutters were in fact effective. with Feith taking close to a minute by Robb’s estimation to cut through the tether Although Battista insisted to the judge that “it was not a timed simulation It was just a demonstration to show how it would be done,” Feith acknowledged before the jury: “Yeah but it is an effective means of actually disengaging yourself with time.” “The issue is that those cutters weren’t put there in the event of a perfect landing They were put there in the event of an absolute emergency where you’re in the water or a helicopter is on fire,” another Liberty pilot testified in a deposition “That’s my issue with all of it is that you gave someone a gun in the event there’s a gun fight They had no chance in the event they had to get themselves out with the knife Day said: “We respect the jury’s verdict and very much appreciate its significance to us as a company and to the industry as a whole The introspection and self-critical analysis we have undertaken in the last six-and-a-half years have shaped our view of what it means to be an industry leader He cited a number of improvements that NYON has made since the accident including changing to a new Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)-approved harness and quick-release tether system; bringing all operations in-house; adding a safety management system; using Bell 206 helicopters that have a fuel shut-off switch on the panel away from the passengers; providing pilots with helicopter underwater escape training; and hiring a new safety officer each of whom has three decades of experience or more. Vertical also reached out to an attorney for Liberty Helicopters but did not immediately receive a response. the NTSB made a number of recommendations to the FAA and others Some of these have been acted on to the NTSB’s satisfaction Investigators determined that only one of the two gas reservoirs in the DART emergency flotation system discharged due to the high forces required to pull the activation handle yet the sound of the single-reservoir discharge and visual indications of inflation led the pilot to mistakenly believe that he had successfully pulled the handle fully aft to completely inflate the floats The NTSB faulted the FAA for failing to identify the lack of an activation handle pull-force limitation when it certified the DART flotation system and warned that other emergency flotation system designs could have similar omissions. Asked by Vertical for comment on the verdict an attorney for DART did not immediately respond. The NTSB also recommended that Airbus modify the floor-mounted fuel shut-off lever in AS350 series helicopters to protect it from inadvertent activation. As detailed in a safety information notice leading the NTSB to declare the status of that recommendation “closed – acceptable action.” the NTSB has been less satisfied with the responses to other recommendations including the FAA’s failure to develop guidance for air taxi and other non-airline operators on how to identify intoxicated or impaired passengers Toxicology results indicated that Cadigan was intoxicated by alcohol at the time of his death although the NTSB concluded that his actions in the helicopter were “all behaviors that could have been performed by an enthusiastic but sober passenger,” and the jury was precluded from hearing testimony that Cadigan had been drinking before the flight. a response the board deemed “unacceptable.” In August of this year, the FAA published a final rule on the use of supplemental restraint systems (SRS) in civil aircraft Directly motivated by the accident in the East River the rule prohibits the use of such harnesses and tethers unless the wearer can release themselves quickly and without the use of a knife or other tool. However, the FAA rejected both suggestions. With respect to the age minimum of 15, the FAA pointed to the same age requirement in its existing exit row seating rule, stating “there is no precedent for individuals younger than 15 to act in an emergency and in a high-stress environment where critical decisions must be made in a matter of seconds.” As for the flightdeck prohibition, “inadvertent activation of the fuel shutoff lever is only one type of accidental interference with flight controls that warrants concern,” the FAA stated. “With an SRS, an individual in the flightdeck has a greater range of motion, allowing many more potential actions that could interfere with the controls as compared to an individual restrained only by the FAA-approved safety belt.” Your email address will not be published.

On the outskirts of every great city across the world are the towns villages and communities that complete the character of a region and such cities perhaps would not be quite so great Los Angeles has the sun-soaked coasts of Santa Monica and Malibu Paris has the densely populated Levallois-Perret and Geneva has the placid beauty of Terre Sainte and Nyon Clouds pass over vineyards on the north shore of Lake Geneva in the La Côte wine producing area or “the Coast,” the small territories known as Terre Sainte and Nyon are set against a backdrop of gently sloping hills off the western banks of Lake Geneva in the canton of Vaud The two regions consist of a number of small villages and municipalities a handful of which have populations under 3,500 Though only a brief train ride away from Geneva’s center the two regions remain mostly undisturbed by traffic and commercial congestion preserving their natural beauty and historic charm A medieval castle rises above other buildings on the shores of Lake Geneva in Nyon “Basically, it’s a question of do you want more space, less traffic and easier access to the airport all for the same budget. If so, then Terre Sainte is the perfect choice,” says Gentilini. While more space and practicality may imply lesser pedigree, the picturesque hills and impressive homes of Terre Sainte and Nyon prove otherwise. Traditional architecture lovers will find plenty of treasures in and around Nyon and Terre Sainte “These old properties are in some ways better because you can keep the traditional beauty of the architecture but with a renovated inside. You rarely see someone building a modern property here when they could keep the original style,” added Gentilini. For older properties dating back centuries classic exteriors have been preserved while interiors .. In Nyon, buyers will find a market with more high-end residences, including some of the sought-after waterfront properties on the western coast of the lake. Due, in part, to the presence of businesses like Hublot and the UEFA, however, there is comparably less residential space than Terre Sainte. This villa near the city of Nyon pairs proximity to shops and world-renowned schools with space As with many luxury markets across the globe, high demand in Terre Sainte and Nyon is clashing with a strained supply, resulting in rising home prices. Cool and sophisticated, the modern interior invites relaxation and conversation. While both markets are comparable, prices per square meter are relatively cheaper in Nyon, says Gentilini. Although rising interest rates have encouraged sellers to move more quickly, competition for ultraluxe properties at the highest end of the market has been largely unaffected. Amenities such as a private swimming pool are a rarity in Geneva's more crowded centers. As a part of Vaud, Terre Sainte and Nyon are set among some of the best wine-producing countrysides in all of Switzerland. Thanks largely to the lake, which provides temperature moderation as well as light reflections, the region is suited to growing a variety of wines, including chasselas, pinot noir and gamay grapes. As such, Vaud boasts multiple Premier Grand Cru sites. With a history that spans back to antiquity, an abundance of historical sites can be found throughout Terre Sainte, including ancient churches and cathedrals, castles and even Roman remains. This contemporary villa in the charming village of Commugny is close to Geneva, transport and ... More renowned international schools. Golf enthusiasts will find a number of world-class courses nearby, such as the Golf & Country Club de Bonmont and the Golf Club du Domaine Impérial, one of the only courses in continental Europe designed by renowned golf architect Peter Dye. According to Gentilini, Nyon has attracted a slightly younger clientele when compared to Terre Sainte. The location is idyllic due to its quiet and private environment in the heart of a residential area As with other lake regions around the globe Lake Geneva offers ample opportunities for water recreation even hosting a number of competitions throughout the year Crown Prince Mohammad Reza Pahlavi of Iran (1919 - 1980 Mohammad Reza later reigned as Shah of Iran from 1941 until 1979 With foreign citizens accounting for almost a quarter of the population Switzerland is home to a wealth of international private schools many of which are located in the general vicinity of Terre Sainte and Nyon Included in this list is the Institut Le Rosey one of the most prestigious and expensive boarding schools in the world a long list of royalty has been educated at Le Rosey such as Prince Rainier III of Monaco; Prince Edward Other notable schools include Ecole Internationale de Genève La Chataigneraieand Le Collège Champittet à Nyon Sunlight washes over the Swiss Riviera of Lake Geneva (Leman) in Montreux An hour and a half by train to the eastern tip of the lake’s crescent shape is Montreux popular ski-resort destinations like Gstaad and Crans-Montana are a rail ride away the second largest airport in Switzerland with service to nearly 50 countries Our U17 international defender was in Switzerland on Thursday to receive the Respect and Fair Play award which was honoured for the respect it showed towards the organisers of the previous UEFA European Championship The award was presented as part of the draws for the U17 and U19 Euros Currently recovering from a knee ligament injury Yaël Thebault signed his first professional contract with Stade Rennais F.C Get Pollstar News and more delivered right to your inbox with Pollstar Daily Pulse By signing up, you agree to Pollstar’s Privacy Policy and Terms of Use The Paléo Festival Nyon 2024 reports that all 200,000 tickets for the July 23-28 event sold out in just 21 minutes March 20 “underlining the tremendous loyalty of the public,” according to a festival statement “The Festival team is delighted with the overwhelming response to this year’s line-up an invitation to broaden one’s musical horizons even further,” the statement continues The Ticket Exchange will open at 11 a.m. local time on March 27.
