The families of three people killed in a 2005 plane crash off of the Florida coast have settled their lawsuits against federal aviation officials. According to the lawsuit Federal Aviation Administration air traffic controllers failed to promptly notify rescuers when pilot Gary Tillman reported engine trouble shortly after takeoff from Craig Municipal Airport in Jacksonville. Tillman, his daughter and another passenger died in the crash. The settlement to the Tillman family and the family of Anna Kipp, the other passenger killed in the crash, is worth $3.75 million.
