Well, unlimited liability put the brakes on small airplane manufacturing in the 80s and 90s. Cessna and Piper virtually halted production of 2 and 4 seat planes for 15 years until they got tort relief. The new aircraft aren't that much better than the old ones, and some say they're worse. They're certainly more expensive.

Very true but you forgot Beech. They simple shut down production of small aircraft due to the liability. As soon as the laws were changed Cessna built a new plant in Independence Kansas.

It wasn't litigation that made cars better it was competition from other manufacturers.
