The verdict includes $1.2 million for pain and suffering and $6.63 million for economic loss, placing fault on Tordrillo Mountain Lodge, Soloy Helicopters, and Third Edge Alaska. The crash, which occurred during a whiteout, was initially blamed on pilot error by the NTSB, but the lawsuit centered on delayed rescue efforts — plaintiffs argued Kellner survived the crash but died because responders didn’t act quickly enough. The case, brought by Kellner’s family, marks a major legal milestone in the aftermath of the tragedy that claimed five lives.
