HARTFORD, Conn. — A lawsuit has been filed against the owners and operators of a World War II-era airplane that crashed at a Connecticut airport last October, killing seven people.
The lawsuit, filed Tuesday in state Superior Court by survivors of the crash and the families of passengers who were killed, seeks unspecified monetary damages from the Collings Foundation, which ran charter flights on its historic B-17G bomber.
The action also names the foundation’s executive director, Robert Collings Jr.
Hunter Chaney, a spokesman for the foundation, said it is prohibited from commenting on the crash or the lawsuit because of the ongoing investigation into the accident by the National Transportation Safety Board.
