  • The area covered by product liability in broadest sense is so vast that an attempt to analyse all its impact on the aviation world risk. Every effort has been made to confine our review of subject a closely as possible to its influence on aircraft manufacturers, airlines and passengers, in spite of strong connections with other spheres of commercial. Product Liability in aviation is the liability of aircraft's manufacturer, processor or non-manufacturing seller for injury to the person or property of a buyer or third party caused by a product which has been sold. Here-in a product is aircraft, third party is passengers who suffered damage by defective design, defective construction, inadequate instructions for handling in aircraft. Whenever a product turns out to be defective after it has been sold, there are under Anglo-American law three remedies available against the aircraft's manufacturer (1) liability for negligence (2) breach of warranty (3) strict liability in tort. There are Under continental law Three remedies available against the aircraft's manufacturer (1) liability for defective warranty (2) liability for non-fulfillment of obligation (3) liability in tort. It is worth pointing out here an action for breach of warranty or for defective warranty, for non-fulfillment of obligation is available only to direct purchaser on the basis of his contract with the aircraft's manufacturer, which of course weakness its range and effectiveness. An action for tort offers the advantage of being available also to third parties who have acquired the defective product at a later stage. In tort, obligations are constituted not only by contract, but also by stature and common law. In conclusion, There in no difference in principle of law. In conclusion I would like to make few suggestions regarding the product liability for aircraft's manufacturer. Firstly, current general product liability code does not specify whether government offices(e.g. FAA) inspector conducted the inspection and auditory certificate can qualify as conclusive legal evidence. These need to be clarified. Secondly, because Korea is gaining potential of becoming aircraft's manufacturer through co-manufacturing and subcontracting-manufacturing with the US and independent production, there needs legislation that can harmonize the protection of both aircraft's manufacturers and their injured parties. Since Korea is in primary stage of aviation industry, considerate policy cannot be overlooked for its protection and promotion. Thirdly, because aircraft manufacturers are risking restitution like air-carriers whose scope of restitution have widened to strict and unlimited liability, there needs importation of mandatory liability insurance and national warranty into the product liability for aircraft's manufacturers. Fourthly, there needs domestic legislation of air transportation law that clearly regulates overall legal relationship in air transportation such as carrier & aircraft manufacturer's liability, and aviation insurance.

  • 한국 제조물책임법 제정 후 입증책임에 관한 신설조항이 추가되고 소비자 보호의 목적에 맞게 개정된 후 시행되고 있다. 신설조항 제3조 2는 입증책임 완화를 위해 간접사실을 입증하면 인과관계를 추정하는 규정을 명문화하였다. 소비자의 권익이 높아지고 소비자 문제에 대중의 관심이 쏠리고 있지만 여전히 문제점이 대두하고 있는 상황이다. 이 문제점을 해결하기 위해 강력한 소비자의 권리를 가지고 있는 미국 제조물책임법을 연구하여 소비자 보호의 측면에서 한국의 제조물책임법이 나아가야 할 방향에 대해 서술하였다. 비교분석 결과를 도출하면 엄격책임의 엄격성, 소비자분쟁해결, 입증가능성, 소송접근성의 기준에서 미국이 한국에 비해 엄격책임의 개념이 확장되어 제조물책임에 엄격책임을 적용 시 더욱 강하게 다루어졌으며, 소비자분쟁해결제도는 교육과 체제적인 소비자 ADR제도를 운영하여 소비자를 철저하게 보호하였다. 입증가능성기준에서 한국은 입증내용이 3가지, 미국은 1가지로 증명내용의 수가 작음에 따라 미국이 입증가능성이 높았고, 소비자소송이 빈번하게 이루어지는 미국은 입증책임 당사자가 제조자로 전환되어 소송 시 입증책임을 당사자가 소비자인 한국에 비해 소송접근성이 높았다. 본 연구에서는 소비자 보호에 초점을 맞추어 한국 제조물책임법이 발전될 수 있는 시사점을 제공한다.
