Abstract

One of the factors resulting from an airplane accident can be caused by the negligence of aircraft personnel in carrying out their duties. Negligence/omission (culpa) in criminal law is an action that should be done carefully but does not do it or lacks attention to the consequences that arise. If aircraft personnel commit negligence in the inspection of aircraft that results in a fatal accident then they must obtain a penalty by existing regulations. In particular, criminal sanctions related to aircraft are regulated in Undang-Undang Nomor 1 Tahun 2009 Bab XXII Pasal 401 to Pasal 443 and Kitab Undang-Undang Hukum Pidana (hereinafter referred to as the KUHP) Bab XXIX A concerning Aviation Crimes and Crimes Against Facilities Pasal 479a-Pasal 479r. Based on the supporting facts (contributing factors), one of the causes of the crash of the Boeing 737-MAX registration PK-LQP with flight number JT-610 belonging to Lion Air crashed in the Java Sea was an AOA miscalibration of 21 ° (twenty-one degrees). The results of the NTSC investigation also found that the replacement AOA sensor installed on the JT 610 aircraft experienced a calibration error due to inadequate repairs carried out in Florida, resulting in miscalibration. Based on this incident, Lion Air ensured compensation for the victims of the JT 610 plane crash by the Regulation of the Minister of Transportation Number 77 of 2011 concerning the Responsibilities of Air Transport Carriers. In Pasal 3 PM 77/2011, it is stated that passengers who died on the plane due to accidents or events that are solely related to air transportation will be compensated for Rp 1.25 billion per passenger.
