A US family that was on board the flight that crashed in Peru last month is reportedly planning to sue aircraft manufacturer Boeing Co.
A total of 58 of the 98 people on board the aircraft operated by Peruvian state-run airline TANS survived the crash, including the family from New York now planning legal action.
The Boeing 737-200 aircraft crash-landed in a marsh and broke apart on impact on 23 August. An investigation is being held in an effort to establish the cause of the accident.
A lawyer representing the Vivas family has claimed that the aircraft has "a series of design and manufacturing flaws" which mean that Boeing can be held responsible.
