Louisiana HB1098 limits liability for aerospace entities in certain circumstances.

Louisiana HB1098 limits the liability of aerospace entities for injuries or damages from aerospace flight activities if the participant signed an agreement and gave consent as required by federal law. This limitation does not apply to gross negligence, willful misconduct, intentional injury, or violations of FAA licenses. The law defines "aerospace flight activities" and "aerospace flight entity," and presumes lawful conduct if in compliance with federal, state, and local licenses.
