Procedural Background
In October of 1982 appellants were injured in a plane crash. Although State Airlines did not own the aircraft involved in the crash, appellant Menut brought suit in Florida’s Broward County Circuit Court against State Airlines one month after the accident, alleging that State Airlines had control of the aircraft and that it was negligent in entrusting the aircraft to the pilot, who was a State Airlines employee.
