“Foster Aviation had issued misleading safety bulletins related to the operational safety of its SE-10 helicopters worldwide.”

Dr. Maryam Bayat, a renowned air crash investigator, is accused of mishandling an investigation into a helicopter carrying oil rig workers that had fallen out of the sky, plunging into the North Sea, killing everyone on board.
