This ought to be interesting:


On the day before the third anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks
on the U.S., insurers for some World Trade Center buildings
sued American and United Airlines and others, alleging their
negligence allowed the deadly hijackings. The suit, which was
filed by London's QBE International Insurance and certain
underwriters at Lloyd's of London, seeks over $300 million from
each of the two airlines and various amounts from other
defendants. The insurers want to recover monies they paid out
for property damage and other losses caused to World Trade
Center buildings 1, 2, 4 and 5 as well as nearby structures.
The case is among a number of Sept. 11 related suits filed
recently to meet the three-year statute of limitations deadline
on Saturday. Among defendants in the case are the airlines'
parents AMR CORP. and UAL CORP. United said it does not comment
on pending litigation. American did not have an immediate
comment. For a list of other defendants, click the "More..."
