DC plane crash victim’s family files claims against FAA, Army

The family of Casey Crafton filed a $250 million claim against the Federal Aviation Administration and the U.S. Army following the deadly January 29 plane crash that killed all 67 people aboard both aircraft.
The crash involved American Airlines Flight 5342 and an Army Sikorsky UH-60 Black Hawk.
Attorney Bob Clifford stated there was 'willful neglect' by the FAA and the Army in overseeing operations on the day of the crash.
The FAA declined to comment on 'potential litigating matters,' while the government has six months to respond to the filed claims before potential lawsuits can proceed.
