A Washington state woman has filed a federal lawsuit claiming negligence against American Airlines stemming from a rocky emergency landing at O’Hare Airport two years ago.
Jewel Thomas of King County Washington, filed the suit Tuesday in U.S. District Court Western District of Washington against American Airlines claiming the emergency landing on Sept. 22, 2008 had her fearing for her life and calling family members to tell them she loved them just in case the landing wound end in disaster.
The suit alleges American Airlines was negligent in failing to exercise the “practical operation” of the plane and failed to provide the passengers with an airplane what was in good mechanical condition.
The suit also claims that a logbook maintained by the airline showed several problems relating to the plane’s power supply.
