Beechcraft, Honeywell Sued For Baron Accident

Estates Of The Pilot And Passenger Seek Unspecified Damages

The estates of two people on board a Beech Baron 58 that went down October 12, 2014 in Palos Heights, IL have sued Beechcraft and Honeywell in connection with the accident. Lloyd Hetrick was also named as a defendant in the suit.

Amina Rehman, administrator of the estate of Tausif Ur Rehman (deceased), and Farahnaz Bandukwala, administrator of the estate of Ali Kanchwala (deceased), are seeking damages “in excess of the minimum allowed under the court’s jurisdiction,” as well as legal fees and other reimbursements. In documents filed with the court in Cook County, IL, they allege that Beechcraft and Honeywell manufactured a faulty airplane, and that Hetrick improperly maintained the Baron.

Tausif Ur Rehman was the pilot of the Baron, and Ali Kanchwala was his passenger. They had departed Chicago Midway Airport and were enroute to Lawrence, KS when the accident occurred.
