S 3081 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to noncommercial aviation

This bill (S 3081) removes a legal duty for property owners (including owners, lessees, or occupants) to maintain safe premises for people engaging in noncommercial aviation activities, such as private flying or recreational flying. It amends New York's General Obligations Law to explicitly exclude "noncommercial aviation" from the list of activities where property owners must ensure safety or warn about hazards. The change applies directly to property owners and individuals participating in noncommercial aviation, clarifying that owners owe no duty of care for injuries occurring during such activities on their property.
