Family of Preston man Sam Pegram, 25, killed in Ethiopian Airlines crash hope for answers at inquest after four-year wait
The families of British passengers - including Preston man Sam Pegram - who died in an Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302 crash say they are looking for answers at a forthcoming inquest.
Vincent Nichol, a specialist aviation solicitor at Irwin Mitchell, said: “The delays to the publication of the Air Accident Report meant the families have had to endure a long wait for answers regarding the crash that lead to the death of their loved ones. This accident could have happened in the UK or anywhere else in the world and finding the answers in this case clearly has wide implications.
“The main aim of the families is that the truth becomes known so no one else has to suffer the way they have - and that the travelling public is safer as a consequence.” Sam Pegram had been working for the Norwegian Refugee Council. Mark Pegram, his father, said: “It’s been over four years since the crash but at last the inquest is happening.
