Watch Video - Wolk argued the scope of the General Aviation Revitalization Act as it might apply to aircraft maintenance publications.
PENNSLYVANIA - (9.19.2011) - Aviation attorney Arthur Alan Wolk was honored recently by being assigned the very first televised appellate argument before the Pennsylvania Supreme Court.
The argument was doubly significant because it was held in the building that first housed the United States Supreme Court from 1790-1803.
The issue is critically important to aviation crash litigators because courts are not uniformly holding that manufacturers can be liable for defective maintenance instructions including Service Bulletins if the airplane component that failed is more than 18 years old to which the instructions applied no matter how recently they were issued.
