Award Affirmed In Crash Deaths
Kansas City Court of Appeals upholds a $5,290 award to the estate of John Michael Tuoeh and his wife, killed March 17, 1957, when their airplane with Tuoeh at the controls crashed near Chillicothe Missouri due to adverse weather. The National Insurance Underwriters appealed, claiming Tuoeh lacked instrument rating and the policy excluded coverage. Judge Broaddus noted depositions from three Chillicothe residents describing a distant flash in the weather, supporting the verdict that the flight was conducted under conditions requiring instrument ratings and that liability stood.
