Descripción editorial
This is a products liability case involving an airplane crash. Appealing from an adverse jury verdict, Cessna Aircraft Company (Cessna) contends that there was no proof that its product, a 210L "Centurion" was dangerously defective or that the defect caused the accident. It also contends the trial court erred in refusing to grant a new trial because the court (1) did not let Cessna use the "Paris Report" in its cross-examination of Mr. McKinley, appellees expert witness; (2) refused Cessnas Jury Instructions Nos. 1, 2 and 3 and (3) allowed Mr. McKinley to testify in rebuttal. Appellees have cross-appealed, contending the trial court erred in refusing to instruct the jury on punitive damages. We disagree and affirm.
