Kyler Efinger, a 30-year-old Park City man with bipolar disorder, died almost two years ago after crawling into an airplane’s engine cowling at the Salt Lake City International Airport. The plane’s pilot was not told that a disoriented man was wandering about the runway, and taxied his plane until it was too late, according to a lawsuit Judd and Lisa Efinger, Kyler’s parents, filed Tuesday against Salt Lake City. The lawsuit argues that if police had found Kyler just 30 seconds earlier, he would still be alive. After trying to open several locked doors at airport gates, the lawsuit states that Kyler left through an emergency exit door at 9:54 p.m., which led him to the airport’s outdoor ramp area. The lawsuit argues that the airport had no systems to prevent someone from easily accessing the tarmac.
