Colorado Springs sits in one of the more complex aviation environments in the state. Colorado Springs Airport (COS) is the second-busiest commercial service airport in Colorado, and it shares runways with Peterson Space Force Base, which generates a steady volume of fast-moving military aircraft operations alongside commercial and civilian traffic. Davis Airfield, located roughly 12 miles away, adds military flight training activity to the mix. General aviation, charter flights, hot air balloons, and helicopter operations also move through the area regularly.
That volume translates into real risk. NTSB data reported 27 aviation accidents across Colorado in 2023, including 6 fatal crashes involving private planes, charter flights, and helicopters. When an incident occurs in El Paso County, victims and families deserve an aviation accident attorney in Colorado Springs who understands the local landscape and can act quickly.
Who May Be Liable in an Aviation Accident
Aviation accidents rarely have a single cause, and liability can extend across multiple parties. Identifying everyone responsible is one of the most consequential steps in building a strong claim.
Potentially liable parties include:
- Pilots whose error or negligence contributed to the accident
- Aircraft owners who failed in their duty to maintain a safe aircraft
- Maintenance providers who performed inadequate or improper repairs
- Charter or air tour operators with unsafe practices or undertrained crews
- Parts manufacturers whose defective components caused or contributed to failure
- Air traffic control when communications or coordination errors played a role
Establishing fault requires a thorough review of FAA regulations, maintenance records, air traffic control communications, and physical evidence from the accident. Colorado’s modified comparative negligence standard applies to these claims: an injured party who is less than 50% at fault can still recover damages, reduced by their proportionate share of responsibility. This general rule applies to most Colorado personal injury claims, though the specifics of any aviation claim may vary.

“Ted Bills changed my outlook on attorneys. Most people will say that lawyers only care about their paycheck, but that is not how Ted works. The process may take a while to get your settlement, but the wait is worth it. As long as you try your best to be patient, Ted will get the job done. Ted has no problem in explaining everything that you need to do in order to make the process as easy as possible. He gives updates by phone and if you have any questions or concerns he will answer them right away. Even when I had to move from Colorado to Florida, it was no problem for Ted. Overall, if I ever get injured in a car accident again, or a friend or family member end up in an accident of their own, I know who to call: Ted Bills.”- T.J.
