Very few facets of tower ownership pose the liability to the tower owner that improper lighting, marking, and monitoring do. In Order 13-30 released March 1, 2013, the FCC states, “An aviation accident attributable to an air obstacle occurs every twelve days on average. More than ninety-five percent of those accidents are related to wires, utility poles, or static lines, and eighty-five percent of them occur during the day.” Wrongful death or serious injury lawsuits and settlements associated with aircraft impacts to tower structures are commonly in the seven figure range.
